Buttermilk Mushroom Risotto with garlic butter

Method

1. Start by prepping your long-grain rice, olive oil, yellow onion so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the mushroom risotto, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Stir in the white beans along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
5. Pour in the chicken stock, bring to a gentle simmer, and cook until thickened and glossy.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with toasted nuts right before serving.
7. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
