Steps
- Prepare the Salmon
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Season the salmon fillets with salt and black pepper.
- Heat olive oil in an oven-safe skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sear the salmon fillets for 2 minutes on each side.
- Transfer the skillet to the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the salmon is cooked through. Set aside.
- Prepare the Risotto
- In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
- Add the Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir for 1-2 minutes, until the rice is coated with oil and slightly toasted.
- Pour in the white wine and cook until it is absorbed by the rice.
- Gradually add the chicken or vegetable broth, about 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more.
- Continue this process until the rice is cooked al dente, which usually takes about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, grated Parmesan cheese, and chopped parsley.
- Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
- Serve the risotto in individual bowls and top each portion with a salmon fillet.
- Garnish with additional lemon zest and parsley, if desired.
Tips
- Make sure to use Arborio rice or another short-grain rice variety for the risotto, as it will give the dish its characteristic creamy texture.
- If you prefer a stronger lemon flavor, you can add more lemon zest and juice to the risotto.
- Feel free to customize the recipe by adding other ingredients such as peas, asparagus, or cherry tomatoes.
