Servings: 4 servings
Calories: 522kcal
Ingredients
- 4-5 cups low-sodium chicken stock
- 16 oz. steak tips
- 1 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium onion diced
- 1 cup arborio rice see note
- ¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1-2 tsp black truffle oil optional, see note
Instructions
- Using a medium saucepan, heat the stock over medium heat until simmering. (Tip: the stock should be hot, but not boiling.)
- Meanwhile, cook steak tips to desired doneness and allows tips to rest at room temperature until risotto is done. (Note: I prefer using a cast iron pan when cooking steak tips indoors.)
- While the steak tips are cooking, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a deep saute pan. Add the diced onion and saute until onion turns translucent in color (~5-7 minutes).
- Add arborio rice and stir until all grains are coated with olive oil. Add 1 cup of hot stock and stir until liquid is fully absorbed. Continue adding 1 cup of stock at a time and stirring until each addition is fully absorbed. This stage should take ~20 minutes total.
- Remove rice from heat and stir in grated Parmesan cheese. Finish with a drizzle of black truffle oil (optional). Place cooked steak tips on top of risotto and serve immediately.
Notes
Arborio or "risotto" rice is essential for this recipe. Risotto will not work with other common types of rice.
Black truffle oil can be found in specialty food stores or perhaps in your local market. A little bit goes a long way, and it adds a deep flavor to this dish that makes it well worth the effort of finding the oil if you don't already have it!
