Ingredients

  • 5-1/2 to 6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 cups uncooked arborio rice
  • 3 large tomatoes, chopped
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen corn, thawed
  • 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh thyme or 2 teaspoons dried thyme
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary or 2 teaspoons dried rosemary, crushed
  • 2 tablespoons minced fresh basil or 2 teaspoons dried basil
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • Shredded Parmesan cheese

Directions

  1. 1
    In a large saucepan, heat broth and keep warm. In a large skillet, saute onion in oil and butter until tender. Add rice; cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until lightly browned. Stir in 1 cup warm broth. Cook and stir until all of the liquid is absorbed.
  2. 2
    Add remaining broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly. Allow the liquid to be absorbed between additions. Cook until risotto is creamy and rice is almost tender (total cooking time will be about 20 minutes).
  3. 3
    Add the tomatoes, corn, feta cheese, herbs, salt and pepper; heat through. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.
