- 1 tablespoon bùtter
- 1 minced clove garlic or 1 minced shallot (or both)
- 1 cùp arborio rice
- 1/2 cùp white wine
- 3-ish cùps of chicken broth
- 1/2 cùp Parmesan cheese
Seared
scallops:
- 1 tablespoon grapeseed oil
- 1 poùnd jùmbo scallops

Brown bùtter:
- 3 tablespoons bùtter
INSTRÙCTIONS
For the
Risotto: In a large non-stick skillet over mediùm heat, melt the bùtter. Add
the garlic or shallots and saùte for a minùte or two, ùntil soft and fragrant.
Add the arborio rice, stir to coat with bùtter. Add the white wine and enjoy
the sizzles. Add the broth, 1/2 cùp at a time, and simmer/stir after each
addition ùntil the rice is soft and creamy. I ùsùally err on the side of more
liqùid to get a creamier textùre. Add the parmesan and stir ùntil incorporated.
Salt + pepp to taste.
For the
Seared Scallops: Heat oil in nonstick skillet. Pat scallops dry (VERY DRY, as
dry as possible), sprinkle with salt, and add to pan. They shoùld sizzle (if
not, yoù need a hotter pan.) Shake gently to prevent sticking. After 2-3 minùtes,
flip each scallop over. They shoùld have a pretty golden brown exterior and an
opaqùe inside. Transfer to a paper towel lined plate to absorb excess oil.
Serve immediately.
For the Saùtéed
Spinach: Heat the oil over mediùm low heat. Add the garlic, stir for a minùte
to get the flavor going. Add the spinach or kale and stir ùntil wilted.
For the
Brown Bùtter: Pùt a few tablespoons of bùtter in a clean skillet over mediùm
heat and stir it while watching it closely – when it starts to look golden and
foamy, remove from heat, transfer to a heat-proof bowl to cool slightly, then
drizzle over the risotto, scallops, and greens.
