    Categories : Grains, Italian, Wine

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    5 cups chicken broth -- (to 6 cups)
    3 tablespoons unsalted butter
    1 tablespoon olive oil
    1 cup onion -- finely chopped
    3 cloves garlic -- chopped
    1 1/4 cups Arborio rice
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
    1 pound pencil-thin asparagus -- trimmed, cut
    -- diagonally into
    -- 1-1/2 inch lengths
    1 1/2 cups red bell pepper -- diced
    1 1/2 cups yellow summer squash -- diced
    1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    3 teaspoons parsley -- chopped
    1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

    In medium saucepan, heat broth to a simmer; keep hot over very low heat.

    In large heavy skillet, combine 2 tablespoons of the butter, the oil, onion and garlic; cook over medium heat, stirring, 5 minutes or until crisp-tender. Add rice; cook stirring, 3 minutes. Add wine and zest; cook stirring, wine absorbed. Raise heat to medium-high. Stir in 1/2 cup hot broth; cook, stirring, until most of the liquid evaporates (spoon leaves track on bottom of pan, yet liquid surrounds each grain). Cook, stirring, 10 minutes more, adding broth, 1/2 cup at a time, as liquid evaporates. Stir in asparagus, bell pepper, squash and black pepper; cook 12 to 15 minutes more; adding hot broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until rice is firm yet tender, a creamy sauce forms and vegetables are tender. Remove from heat; stir in remaining butter, the parsley and cheese. Serve immediately.
