Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 1 tbsp butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms and cook for 5 minutes until golden brown and moisture evaporates, stirring occasionally.
  2. Step 2: Add Arborio rice to the pan and stir for 2 minutes until translucent and coating each grain. Pour in white wine and simmer until fully absorbed, about 2 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Begin adding hot stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each addition is absorbed before adding more. Continue for 20-22 minutes total, maintaining a gentle simmer.
  4. Step 4: Stir in remaining 2 tbsp butter, 1/2 cup Parmesan, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let sit for 2 minutes until creamy and thickened, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  5. Step 5: Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper. Serve immediately with extra Parmesan for garnish.
