Ingredients

  • 1 fillet rockfish, seasoned
  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • 1 small shallot, minced
  • 3–4 cups seafood or vegetable broth, warmed
  • ½ cup fresh or lump crabmeat
  • ½ cup green peas
  • 2 tbsp fried capers
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions
  • Microgreens, for garnish
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste

Directions

  • In a saucepan, sauté shallots in olive oil until translucent. Add Arborio rice and toast for 1–2 minutes.
  • Gradually ladle in warm broth, stirring constantly, allowing each addition to absorb before the next. Cook until rice is tender and creamy (about 20 minutes).
  • Stir in peas, crabmeat, and green onions. Season with salt and pepper.
  • While risotto cooks, pan-sear the rockfish in olive oil over medium-high heat until golden and cooked through, about 3–4 minutes per side.
  • Plate risotto, top with rockfish, sprinkle fried capers, and finish with microgreens and a drizzle of olive oil.
