SHRIMP AND ARTICHOKE RISOTTO

Steps:

• Place the chicken broth and the wine in a medium-size saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and keep at a simmer. Heat the olive oil in a large, wide pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring constantly, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the rice to the shallots and stir to combine.
• Ladle in 1/2 cup of the chicken broth mixture and stir constantly with a wooden fork until most of the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding broth 1/2 cup at a time and stirring until rice is tender, about 50 minutes. After 45 minutes, stir in the shrimp.
• Stir in the steamed artichoke pieces, oregano, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Divide among 4 bowls and sprinkle with the raw artichoke heart strips and parsley. Serve immediately.

ARTICHOKE RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the artichoke hearts and reduce the heat to medium high. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes, or until the hearts are beginning to brown. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• To the same pan, add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the butter and the shallots and cook for 1 minute, stirring regularly. Add the rice and salt and stir with a wooden spoon to coat all the kernels with oil. Continue to cook for 3 minutes, or until the rice is sizzling. Add the wine and cook, stirring, until it is almost completely absorbed. Now begin adding the chicken broth, one cup at a time, stirring frequently between additions. After the first cup is almost entirely absorbed, add the next cup. Continue in this way until the rice is cooked through and you have a creamy risotto, about 20 minutes in all. (The risotto should be slightly loose, not dry; it should run off your spoon. If it gets too dry, add a bit more broth.) Stir in the peas, feta, chives, mint and black pepper. Gently stir in the artichoke hearts and the lemon juice. Serve.
