    Ingredients

    • 3 tablespoons butter, divided
    • 200g mushrooms, sliced
    • 4 cloves garlic, minced
    • 1 tablespoon minced fresh thyme
    • 1 tablespoon minced fresh sage
    • 1 small shallot, finely minced
    • 1-1/2 cups arborio rice
    • 1/2 cup white wine
    • 4 cups chicken broth, warmed
    • marinated goat cheese

    Preparation

    • Step 1 In a medium pan over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add mushrooms, salt, and pepper to taste and cook 2-3 minutes until just tender. Add garlic and herbs and saute. Transfer to a bowl and keep warm.
    • Step 2 In the same pan over medium heat, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Add shallot and saute 2-3 minutes until translucent. Add the arborio rice and toast 1-2 minutes. Slowly stir in white wine to deglaze pan.
    • Step 3 Reduce heat and cook stirring occasionally until wine is absorbed. Add broth into pan, and stir occasionally until liquid is absorbed. Continue adding chicken broth a little bit at a time using the same method until the rice is tender and creamy (this process should take about 15-20 minutes in total)
    • Step 4 Remove risotto from heat, mix in garlic butter mushrooms, and top with goat cheese. Serve risotto hot and enjoy!
