Ingredients

• 1½ cups Arborio rice
• 6 cups Nourish Yourself chicken or beef bone broth, kept warm
• 1 medium onion, finely diced
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• ½ cup dry white wine
• 3 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• ¾ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
• Salt and white pepper to taste
• Fresh thyme or chives for garnish

Instructions

1. Keep bone broth warm in a separate saucepan over low heat throughout cooking.
2. Heat olive oil and 1 tbsp butter in a wide, heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Sauté onion for 4–5 minutes until translucent. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
3. Add Arborio rice and stir to coat in the fat. Toast for 2 minutes until the edges turn translucent.

7. Stir in remaining butter and Parmesan. Season with salt and white pepper.
8. Serve immediately, garnished with fresh thyme or chives.

Nutrition Notes

Nourish Yourself Bone broth adds collagen, minerals, and deep savory flavor to this risotto. This dish is gluten-free. The slow-addition technique creates natural creaminess from the rice starch — no cream required. Parmesan provides calcium and umami depth.
