Risotto With Turkey Mushrooms And Peas Recipes

RISOTTO WITH MUSHROOMS AND PEAS

Steps:

• Heat the chicken broth in a medium saucepan, then cover and keep warm on low heat.
• Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat and add the olive oil. Add the onions and saute, stirring occasionally, under tender and translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Add the mushrooms and garlic and saute, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are tender and the juices have evaporated, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Next, add the rice and stir to incorporate with the vegetables, then immediately add the white wine. Cook, stirring often, until the liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of the broth to the pan and simmer over medium-low heat, stirring often, until the liquid is absorbed, 3 to 4 minutes. Continue to cook, adding broth by the cupful and stirring often, until the rice is tender and creamy, 28 to 32 minutes. Stir in the Parmesan and peas. Add salt and pepper to taste.

MUSHROOM RISOTTO WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Bring stock or broth to a simmer in a saucepan, with a ladle nearby. Make sure stock is well seasoned, and keep it simmering on the stove.
• Heat oil in a wide, heavy nonstick skillet or saucepan over medium heat. Add onions or shallots and cook gently until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Turn up heat and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, about 3 minutes, then add garlic and thyme or sage. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Season mushrooms with salt and pepper and continue to cook over medium heat until they are soft. Taste and adjust seasoning.
• Add rice and stir until grains begin to crackle. Add wine and cook, stirring, until wine is no longer visible in pan. Stir in enough simmering stock to just cover the rice. The stock should bubble slowly. Cook, stirring often and vigorously, until stock is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of stock and continue cooking, not too fast and not too slowly, stirring often and adding more stock when rice is almost dry, for 15 minutes.
• Add peas, if using, and continue adding stock and stirring for another 10 minutes. Rice should be tender all the way through but still al dente. Taste now and adjust seasoning.
• Add another ladleful or two of stock to rice. Stir in parsley and Parmesan, and remove from heat. Season with black pepper and serve right away in wide soup bowls or on plates.

RISOTTO WITH TURKEY, MUSHROOMS AND PEAS

Steps:

• Place the mushrooms in a large Pyrex measuring cup, and pour in 2 cups boiling water. Allow to sit for 30 minutes. Line a strainer with cheesecloth, place it over a bowl and strain the mushrooms. Squeeze the mushrooms over the strainer then rinse several times to rid them of sand. Set aside. Combine the mushroom soaking liquid with the stock in a saucepan.
• Bring the stock to a simmer over low heat, with a ladle nearby or in the pot. Make sure that the stock is well seasoned.
• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy nonstick skillet or a wide, heavy saucepan. Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt, and cook gently until the onion is just tender, about three minutes. Do not brown.
• Stir in the rice, porcinis and garlic. Stir until the grains separate and begin to crackle. Add the wine, and stir until it is no longer visible in the pan. Begin adding the simmering stock a couple of ladlefuls (about 1/2 cup) at a time. The stock should just cover the rice and should be bubbling neither too slowly nor too quickly. Cook, stirring often, until it is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock, and continue to cook in this fashion, adding more stock and stirring when the rice is almost dry. You do not have to stir constantly, but stir often. After 15 minutes, stir in the turkey and the peas, and continue to add stock as instructed above. The risotto is done in 20 to 25 minutes, when the rice is just tender all the way through but still chewy. Taste now and adjust seasoning.
• Add another ladleful or two of stock to the rice. Stir in the chives and Parmesan, and remove from the heat. The mixture should be creamy (add more stock if it isn't). Serve right away in wide soup bowls or on plates, spreading the risotto in a thin layer rather than a mound.

TURKEY AND MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Bring stock to a simmer in a medium pot over medium heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and keep warm.
• Meanwhile, melt 3 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat until it begins to foam. Add onion. Sauté, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and translucent and just beginning to turn golden, about 5 minutes.
• Add mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, and any liquid released has evaporated, 5-7 minutes.
• Add rice; stir to coat. Add 1/2 cup warm stock and stir constantly until liquid is absorbed. Continue adding stock by 1/2-cupfuls, stirring constantly, until rice is tender but still firm to the bite, about 20 minutes. Add leftover turkey meat, if using; stir to combine and to warm through, adding a little stock or water if necessary to keep mixture creamy, about 3 minutes.
• Stir Parmesan and remaining 1 tablespoons butter into risotto. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Divide among warm bowls. Garnish with chopped parsley.

MUSHROOM RISOTTO WITH PEAS

Steps:

• Bring the broth to a simmer in a heavy medium saucepan. Add the porcini mushrooms. Set aside until the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Keep the broth warm over very low heat.
• Melt the butter in a heavy large saucepan over medium heat. Add olive oil. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 8 minutes. Add the white mushrooms and garlic. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the porcini mushrooms to a cutting board. Finely chop the mushrooms and add to the saucepan. Saute until the mushrooms are tender and the juices evaporate, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and let it toast for a few minutes. Add the wine; cook until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 2 minutes. Add 1 cup of hot broth; simmer over medium-low heat until the liquid is absorbed, stirring often, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook until the rice is just tender and the mixture is creamy, adding more broth by cupfuls and stirring often, about 28 minutes (the rice will absorb 6 to 8 cups of broth). Stir in the peas. Mix in the Parmesan. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

RISOTTO WITH PEAS & PORCINI

Steps:

• Put the porcini and shiitake mushrooms in a medium heatproof bowl. Pour in 2 cups boiling water and weight down the mushrooms with a small plate so they are submerged. Soak until they're plumped and softened, about 20 min. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the mushrooms to a cutting board, squeezing any excess liquid from the mushrooms back into the soaking liquid. Let cool. Remove and discard any tough stems. Coarsely chop the mushrooms. Strain the soaking liquid through a coffee filter or paper towel set in a sieve and reserve.
• In a medium (3-quart) saucepan over medium heat, heat the chicken broth with all the mushroom soaking liquid. In another medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion and a sprinkling of salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and lightly browned, 5 to 7 min.
• Add the rice and cook, stirring, for 1 min. Add the mushrooms and cook, stirring, for 1 min. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until almost completely reduced, about 1 min. Add 1 cup of the hot broth and cook, stirring frequently, until the broth is almost completely absorbed. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer. Continue adding the broth 1 cup at a time and stirring frequently until absorbed, until the rice is tender but still toothsome (taste a few grains), 20 to 24 min. from when the first cup of broth is added. You might not need to use all of the broth. Or, if the rice still seems fairly firm when you add the last of the broth, heat and use more chicken broth as needed. Stir in the peas, Parmigiano, vinegar, and half of the mint and thyme. Season the risotto with salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately, garnished with a sprinkling of the remaining mint and thyme.

TURKEY, MUSHROOM, AND BARLEY RISOTTO

Steps:

• Bring 6 cups broth, barley, and mushrooms to boil in large saucepan. Cover; cook over medium-low heat until barley is just tender, stirring occasionally and adding more broth by 1/4 cupfuls if barley becomes dry, about 35 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. sauté until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Add pear and sauté until just tender, about 5 minutes. Add turkey.
• Add barley mixture and Marsala to turkey mixture. Simmer until creamy, adding more broth if dry. Mix in most of parsley. Season with pepper. Mound in bowl. Sprinkle with remaining parsley.
