To begin with this recipe, we must first prepare a few components. You can have zucchini risotto using 7 ingredients and 7 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Zucchini Risotto:
- Make ready 4 cups low sodium chicken broth
- Make ready 1 cup arborio rice
- Make ready 2 tbs olive oil
- Prepare 2 tbs unsalted butter
- Get 2 small zucchini
- Prepare 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
- Make ready to taste salt and pepper

This zucchini risotto was an easy-to-follow recipe with a crowd-pleasing result that was especially satisfying on a very cold, snowy night. The risotto was warm, creamy, and, with the addition of a little extra Parmesan cheese at the end, really hit the spot.
Instructions to make Zucchini Risotto:
- Slice zucchini on the bias to 1/4" thick slices. Heat chicken broth in a small sauce pan to almost boiling. Reduce heat, keep warm over low heat.
- In a separate, medium sized sauce pan heat oil and butter over medium high heat. As soon as butter melts add zucchini.
- Sautée until zucchini just begins to soften. For crisper zucchini remove from pan with slotted spoon to leave oil/butter behind and set aside. For ultra-soft zucchini that will blend into your risotto leave in pan to cook entire time.
- Add rice to pan. Cook to toast lightly, stirring constantly. About 2 minutes. Reduce heat to medium low. Add one cup hot broth. Stir constantly until broth is mostly abdorbed.
- Add the remaining broth one cup at a time allowing each addition to be absorbed before adding more. When final cup of broth is about 3/4 absorbed reduce heat to low and stir in parmesan.
- If you removed zucchini from the pan: For medium-soft zucchini return to pan half way through cooking risotto. For firmest texture add with parmesan.
- Taste before serving. Add salt and pepper if desired (I rarely add any cause the parmesan is usually salty enough). Enjoy!
