- 2 tablespoons of olive oil
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 cup of white wine (optional)

Instructions
This Bacon and Mushroom Risotto is so easy to make. Here's how you do it:
First, heat olive oil in a large saucepan or pot over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened and fragrant, about 3-5 minutes. Add the Arborio rice and cook for another minute, stirring constantly.
Once the rice is toasted and fragrant, add the white wine if using, and cook until the liquid is mostly absorbed. Add the chicken stock, one cup at a time, stirring constantly and allowing the liquid to absorb before adding the next cup. Continue until the rice is cooked through, about 18-20 minutes.
Turn off the heat and stir in the butter, Parmesan cheese, bacon, mushrooms, salt, and pepper. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Serve the risotto hot and enjoy!
