  • 4 cups homemade chicken stock or 1 package \u201cMore Than Gourmet\u201d Jus De Poulet Lie Gold – Roasted Chicken Demi-glace<\/span> whisked into 4 cups boiling water<\/li>\n
  • Splash of heavy cream<\/li>\n
  • \u00bc cup fresh parsley, minced<\/li>\n
  • 1\/2 cup freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano<\/li>\n
  • Black truffle<\/span>, shaved, or truffle oil<\/span> to taste (optional)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    <\/em><\/p>\n

    Directions<\/h3>\n

    Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Toss the mushroom with olive oil, half of garlic, salt, pepper and a couple sprigs of thyme and lay them out on a non-stick baking sheet. Roast for 10-15 minutes, until they begin to caramelize. Remove from oven and set aside. <\/p>\n

    Bring the stock to a simmer and keep it over very low heat. <\/p>\n

    \"DehydratedIn a deep, heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium low heat. Saut\u00e9 the shallots with remaining garlic, season with salt and pepper, stirring until soft and clear. Raise the heat to medium and add the rice. Cook for about three minutes, stirring frequently until it looks chalky and a white dot is clearly visible in the center of each grain. Add the wine and cook, stirring until it is absorbed.<\/p>\n

    Begin to add the stock one cup at a time, simmering and stirring until each addition has been absorbed by the rice before adding the next. <\/p>\n

    After all of the stock has been added, add in the chopped re-hydrated mushrooms, remaining thyme leaves and half the parsley.<\/p>\n

    Remove pan from the heat and fold in the cream and cheese. Add shaved black truffle\/truffle oil if using. Allow the risotto to rest for a couple of minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings if needed.<\/p>\n

    Note: When ready, rice should be close to tender, but with a little more firmness to the bite. It should be slightly loose, with a creamy consistency. Be careful not to overcook it or it will be mushy.<\/em> <\/p>\n
