Spicy Risotto With Red Pepper Recipe

Recipe By The Spruce Eats

Risotto is a popular italian rice dish that is deceptively easy to make. This low-fat vegetarian and vegan spicy risotto rice recipe uses cayenne and plenty of red pepper flakes to give it quite a bit of kick. It's a dish that is sure to be popular with whoever it's cooked for. This dish combines scallion and onion, red pepper, garlic, olive oil, cayenne pepper, and red pepper flakes, making it colorful and flavorful. The secret to getting the rich, creamy texture of risotto is patience. Be sure to slowly combine the rice with the liquid, allowing it to cook all the way out while stirring before adding more liquid. This can take around 25 minutes, but the resulting dish is well worth the wait
