Instructions

  • In a saucepan, bring the chicken or vegetable broth and white wine to a simmer over medium heat.
  • In a separate large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
  • Add the grated lemon zest and Arborio rice, stirring constantly, and cook for about 1 minute until the rice is well coated with oil.
  • Gradually add the hot broth mixture to the rice, about 1/2 to 1 cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to be absorbed before adding more.
  • Continue this process until the rice is creamy and tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  • Stir in the chopped chives and grated Parmesan cheese until well combined.
  • Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the grill to the highest setting.
  • Place the shrimp on a baking sheet.
  • Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the minced garlic and cook for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  • Drizzle the melted garlic butter over the shrimp, then season with freshly ground black pepper.
  • Grill the shrimp for 2-3 minutes until they turn pink and opaque.
  • Serve the grilled shrimp over the lemon chive risotto, garnished with lemon wedges.
