The traditional rice dish needs a long cooking time and constant stirring to get its signature creamy texture, but not with this ultra-quick and delicious shortcut!
I've been working on this recipe for years-tweaking and fussing, and I believe it is about ready. My family and friends love it. I also use it as meat sauce filling for lasagna.
Make this when tomatoes are at their peak. The combination of juicy sweetness blended with fresh basil is an Italian classic and a refreshingly smart warm-weather choice.
This simple rice dish doesn't require any fussy methods or fancy ingredients, but the result tastes like the creamiest Italian restaurant risotto. You will love it.
