Roasted Butternut Squash Risotto with Sugared Walnuts

walnuts

butter, melted

brown sugar

black pepper

(1/2-inch) cubed peeled butternut squash

olive oil

garlic

chicken broth

water

pancetta, finely chopped (I used bacon)

onion

Arborio rice

chardonnay

lemon thyme

salt

Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

Arrange nuts in a single layer on a jelly-roll pan. Bake at 400° for 5 minutes or until toasted, stirring twice. Place nuts in a bowl. Drizzle butter over warm nuts; sprinkle with sugar and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Toss well to coat.

Combine squash and 1 tablespoon oil, tossing to coat. Arrange squash in a single layer on jelly-roll pan. Bake at 400° for 15 minutes or until squash is just tender. Remove from pan; stir in garlic. Set aside.

Bring broth and 1/2 cup water to a simmer in a saucepan (do not boil). Keep warm over low heat.

Heat a large saucepan over medium heat. Add pancetta to saucepan; cook 5 minutes or until browned, stirring frequently. Add onion; cook 3 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally. Add rice; cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Add wine; cook 1 minute or until liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly. Add broth mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly until each portion of broth is absorbed before adding the next (about 20 minutes total). Stir in squash, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Top with cheese and nuts.

This look like me very delicious and your article give good tips. Every time you give good suppor to your readers. Thanks a lot

This was so yummy. I used pecans instead of walnuts and I sprinkled blue cheese on top to balance the sweetness of the nuts and squash. So good!
