Italian Shrimp and Scallop Risotto

"The secret to making a good seafood risotto is to use a high-quality fish stock and of course the freshest seafood you can find. Cook the shellfish and rice separately, as the rice needs more time. If you cook them together, the shellfish will overcook and get chewy."

Ingredients :

• Shellfish:
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 3 cloves garlic, peeled
• 1/2 pound shelled sea scallops
• 1/2 pound uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1/2 lemon, juiced
• 1 bunch fresh parsley, finely chopped
• Risotto:
• 1 quart fish stock, or more as needed
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• 1 (12 ounce) package Arborio rice
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions :

Prep : 20M	Cook : 4M	Ready in : 57M

• Heat 3 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet over a medium heat. Add garlic; cook and stir until starting to sizzle, about 2 minutes. Stir in scallops and cook for 1 minute. Add shrimp and season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Cook over high heat until shrimp are pink, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Pour 1/2 cup white wine into the skillet and let the alcohol evaporate. Scrape the bottom of the skillet to deglaze; cook until the liquid is reduced, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, add lemon juice, and sprinkle with 1/2 of the parsley. Discard garlic. Cover the skillet to keep shellfish warm.
• Pour fish stock into a saucepan over medium heat and bring to a simmer.
• Melt butter in a skillet over low heat. Add 1 tablespoon olive oil and shallot. Cook until shallot is soft and translucent, but not brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Increase heat and add rice; cook until rice has absorbed the oil and butter and has a nutty aroma, stirring often, 1 to 2 minutes. Make sure not to burn the shallot and reduce heat if skillet gets too hot.
• Pour 1/2 cup white wine into the skillet and stir until alcohol has evaporated. Add 1 ladleful of fish stock, stir, and cook until rice has absorbed the stock. Add another ladleful and repeat the process until the rice is tender, 15 to 18 minutes in total.
• Add shellfish with their juices to the risotto pan 3 minutes before the end of cooking. Stir and finish cooking all together, adding stock if needed. Remove from heat. Stir in remaining parsley and 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil. Let risotto stand for 2 minutes before serving.

Notes :

• Replace shrimps and scallops with calamari, clams, or mussels if you prefer.
