Preparation

What You Need

2 tbsp (30 ml) butter
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 cups (500 ml) cherry tomatoes
1 onion, chopped
1 cup (250 ml) Arborio rice
1/2 cup (125 ml) white wine
2 1/2 cups (625 ml) chicken broth
1 bay leaf
1 tbsp (15 ml) fresh thyme or
1 tsp (5 ml) dried thyme
Salt
Ground pepper to taste
1 cup (250 ml) broccoli flowers
3/4 cup (180 ml) Canadian Provolone, grated

Instructions

In saucepan, melt half of butter over medium-high heat and sauté garlic with cherry tomatoes 3-4 minutes. Transfer in an ovenproof container and keep in oven at 300°F (150°C).

In another saucepan, heat chicken broth and let simmer while preparing the risotto.

In first saucepan, over medium heat, sauté onion 5 minutes in remaining butter. Add rice and stir well to coat grains with butter.

Pour in the wine and a bit of broth. Add herbs and seasoning. Continue cooking 15-20 minutes, pouring small quantities of liquid every 3-4 minutes. Add broccoli midway. Rice should remain slightly crunchy but must absorb all the liquid.

Remove bay leaf. Add Provolone. Stir well, melt cheese and adjust seasoning, before topping with the cherry tomatoes.
