🛒 Ingredients

✓ 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
✓ 2 tablespoons grass-fed butter
✓ 1 medium onion, finely diced
✓ 4 cloves garlic, minced
✓ 1.5 cups mixed mushrooms (cremini, shiitake, oyster), sliced
✓ 1 cup Arborio rice
✓ 4 cups low-sodium vegetable or bone broth, warmed
✓ 0.5 cup dry white wine
✓ 0.5 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese
✓ 2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves
✓ 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
✓ Sea salt and black pepper to taste
✓ 2 cups fresh spinach or arugula
✓ Fresh parsley for garnish

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté for 4-5 minutes until golden and moisture evaporates. Season with salt and pepper, then set aside.

2. In the same pot, melt 1 tablespoon butter and sauté diced onion for 3-4 minutes until translucent. Add minced garlic and thyme, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.

3. Add Arborio rice and stir constantly for 2 minutes to toast the grains, allowing each grain to be coated with fat.

4. Pour in white wine and stir until completely absorbed by the rice, about 2 minutes.

5. Begin adding warm broth one ladle at a time (approximately 0.75 cup), stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is mostly absorbed before adding the next ladle. Continue for 18-20 minutes until rice is creamy but still al dente.

6. Stir in cooked mushrooms, remaining butter, and grated cheese until fully incorporated. Add fresh spinach and lemon juice, stirring until spinach wilts completely.

7. Taste and adjust seasoning with sea salt and black pepper. The risotto should have a flowing, creamy consistency.

8. Divide among four bowls, garnish with fresh parsley and additional cheese if desired. Serve immediately.
