Ingredients:

1 stick unsalted butter

1 1/4 cups chopped onion

2 1/4 cups arborio rice

10 cups chicken stock

3/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese

1/4 cup chopped fresh basil

Directions:

Melt half the butter in a large, heavy stockpot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and golden, about 7 minutes. Add rice and stir to coat with butter. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Increase heat to medium-high. Add about 2 cups of chicken stock, enough to just cover the rice, stirring constantly. When all the stock has been absorbed, add 1/2 cup more, stirring until it is absorbed. Repeat this procedure until stock is gone.
Stir in grated cheese and chopped basil and remaining butter. Spoon onto serving plates and enjoy!
