Directions: Quail, Mushroom And Watercress Risotto Recipe

Cooking Directions

  • STEP 1.In a large saucepan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion and minced garlic, and sauté until translucent.
  • STEP 2.Add Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir to coat the grains with oil. Cook for a few minutes until the rice becomes slightly translucent.
  • STEP 3.Gradually add chicken or vegetable broth to the saucepan, stirring constantly. Allow the rice to absorb the liquid before adding more. Continue this process until the rice is cooked al dente.
  • STEP 4.In a separate pan, heat butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and become golden brown.
  • STEP 5.Season the quail with salt and pepper. In the same pan used for the mushrooms, cook the quail until golden brown and cooked through.
  • STEP 6.Once the risotto is cooked, stir in the cooked mushrooms and chopped watercress. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the watercress wilts.
  • STEP 7.Serve the quail on top of the risotto and garnish with additional watercress leaves. Enjoy!

Cooking Tips

  • Make sure to stir the risotto constantly to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • For a richer flavor, you can add a splash of white wine to the risotto before adding the broth.
  • If you prefer a vegetarian version, you can omit the quail and use vegetable broth instead of chicken broth.

Storage and Serving

  • Leftover risotto can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat the risotto, add a splash of broth or water to a pan and heat over medium heat until warmed through.
  • Serve the risotto as a main dish or as a side dish with grilled meats or roasted vegetables.
