Here it os often served as a side dish, but it makes a great main dish. I stir chunks of leftover chicken in at the last just until warm. Serve with a salad and fresh fruit for dessert...bellissimo! | | Ingredients | | 1 tablespoon olive_oil 2 tablespoons butter 2 ounces diced pancetta ( or regular bacon) 1 cup chopped yellow onions 1/2 teaspoon sea_salt 1/4 teaspoon white_pepper 12 turns fresh ground black_pepper 1 pound carnaroli or abborio_rice (do not try to use regular rice, it won't work) 6 cups beef stock (1 cup reserved and warmed) 1/2 teaspoon saffron threads 2 teaspoons chopped garlic 1/2 cup grated Parmigiano_Reggiano cheese
