Ingredients:

• 6 cups chicken broth 
• 3 tablespoons olive oil 
• 1/2 pound each of thinly sliced portobello and white mushrooms 
• 2 medium shallots 
• 1 1⁄2 cups Arborio rice
• 1⁄2 cup dry white wine 
• 4 tablespoons butter 
• 3 tablespoons finely chopped chives 
• 1⁄3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese 
• Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper 

Directions:

Step 1: Magic Broth Warming Warm up 6 cups of chicken broth in a saucepan over low heat. We're getting that liquid gold ready!

Step 2: Mushroom Madness In a large saucepan, heat up 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat. Toss in those portobello and white mushrooms, cook 'em until they're soft and delightful (about 3 minutes), and then, set them aside in a bowl.

Step 3: Aromatherapy with Shallots Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the saucepan, toss in the diced shallots, and let the aromatherapy begin. After a minute of shallot sautéing, add the Arborio rice, stir it up until it's coated with oil and rocking a pale, golden color (about 2 minutes).

Step 4: Wine and Dine Pour in the dry white wine, stir until the wine is fully absorbed. Now, the risotto magic begins! Add warm broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly. We're talking 20 minutes of stirring love until that rice is tender, yet firm to the bite.

Step 5: The Grande Finale Take it off the heat and let the real show begin. Stir in those reserved mushrooms and their liquid, throw in the butter, chives, and Parmesan cheese. Season it with a sprinkle of salt and pepper – voila! Serve immediately and bask in the glory of your culinary creation.
