Ingredients | Garlic Chives Vs Chives Flowers

4 cups chicken broth

2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

4 cloves roasted garlic, mashed into a paste

4 leaves fresh sweet basil

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

1 tablespoon butter

1 shallot, finely chopped

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 ½ cups Arborio rice

¼ cup dry white wine

¼ cup half-and-half

¼ cup crumbled Gorgonzola cheese

Directions

Combine chicken broth, chives, roasted garlic, and basil in a saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer.

Heat vegetable oil and butter in a separate pot over medium heat; cook and stir shallot and garlic in the hot oil-butter mixture until shallot is softened, about 5 minutes. Add rice to shallot mixture; increase heat to medium-high. Cook and stir until rice is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add wine, reduce heat to low, and simmer until wine is absorbed, about 5 minutes.

Stir simmering broth mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, into rice mixture and continue to simmer until rice absorbs liquid; repeat, adding 1/2 cup of broth at a time, until all the broth is absorbed and rice is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir half-and-half into risotto; fold in Gorgonzola cheese until melted.
