Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a medium ovenproof saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion, and saute until translucent. Stir in the rice, and cook for one minute.
- Step 2
Add the chicken broth to the pan, and bring to a boil. Cover, and transfer to the oven. Bake until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 12 to 15 minutes. Be careful not to overcook.
- Step 3
Remove from the oven, and stir in the cream and Parmesan cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.

Delicious! I could not resist increasing the amount of Parmesan cheese and cream that was added at the end of the baking time. Leftovers were easy to reheat and equally delicious reheated with even more cream and Parmesan! I am making again tonight...
Topped with broiled lobster tails. Added more parmesan cheese and heavy cream. Our anniversary and NYE. AMAZING with the wine we picked.
Doubled the recipe tonight, it needed an extra 10 minutes in the oven but it still turned out perfect!
Added chopped parsley and fresh grated mozzarella, nutmeg and za’atar at the end. Served with chopped Kalamata olives and capers.
Wondering if anyone has doubled or even tripled this recipe for a larger party?

Added portobello mushrooms. Had only half & half in the house, so used that. DELICIOUS, and could not have been easier.
