Total time: 
Serves: 4-6 servings
 
Ingredients
  • 5 sweet onions (I used vidalia)
  • 2 gloves garlic, minced
  • 4 tbsp. olive oil
  • 2 cups arborio rice
  • 1 cup white wine
  • 4-5 cups chicken stock
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • ¼ tsp. pepper
  • ¼ tsp. allspice
  • ¼ cup parmesan cheese
Instructions
  1. Melt butter in a large pot. While butter is melting, halve and thinly slice onions.
  2. Add onions to pot and season with a pinch each of salt and pepper.
  3. Turn heat to medium-low and stir occasionally as the onions caramelize. This should take about 40 minutes. Once caramelized, remove from pot and set aside.
  4. Add olive oil and minced garlic to pot, stirring until fragrant, about 1-2 minutes.
  5. Add rice to pot and stir to toast for 4-5 minutes.
  6. Add white wine to pot and allow to reduce.
  7. Once white wine has reduced, add chicken stock cup by cup, allowing rice to absorb it after each addition.
  8. When the rice is tender, season with salt, pepper, and allspice.
  9. Add onions back to pot.
  10. Add parmesan cheese to pot and stir until melted.
  11. Enjoy!
