Ingredients

  • 1 Tbs. unsalted butter
  • 2 Tbs. olive oil
  • 12 oz. wild mushrooms, cleaned, trimmed and cut into bite-size
  • pieces
  • 2 shallots or 1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine or vermouth
  • 4 cups low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
  • Chopped fresh chives for garnish

Instructions

  • In a stovetop pressure cooker pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter with 1 Tbs. of the olive oil. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until well browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
  • Reduce the heat to medium and warm the remaining 1 Tbs. olive oil. Add the shallots and sauté until softened, about 2 minutes. Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 minute to toast slightly. Add the wine and stir until it evaporates. Add 3 1/2 cups of the broth.
  • Lock the lid into place and cook on high pressure for 6 minutes. Quick-release the steam. When the pressure valve drops, remove the lid, tilting it away from your face to allow residual steam to escape.
  • Stir the rice and taste for doneness; it should be al dente and the liquid should be soupy. If it is not done, stir in the remaining 1/2 cup broth and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until the rice is cooked. Add the mushrooms and stir in the cheese. Garnish with chives and serve immediately. Serves 4.
