Let's Get Started
- Cook the lobster tails in boiling water for 8-10 minutes or until they are bright red. Remove from the water and let cool. Once cooled, remove the meat and chop into bite-sized pieces.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until they are soft and translucent.
- Add the Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir until the grains are coated in the butter and begin to toast slightly.
- Pour in the white wine and stir until it is fully absorbed by the rice.
- Begin adding the chicken broth, one cup at a time, stirring continuously. Wait until each cup of broth is absorbed before adding the next.
- Once all the broth has been absorbed and the rice is tender, stir in the chopped lobster, Parmesan cheese, and truffle oil. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve the risotto hot, garnished with chopped parsley.
