Ingredients:

• 1 cup Arborio rice
• 2 cups chicken or vegetable broth
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 1/2 onion, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 oz pancetta, diced
• 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1/2 teaspoon saffron threads
• 8 oz salmon fillet, skin removed and cut into small cubes
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

The saffron threads should steep in two tablespoons of warm water in a small bowl for approximately ten minutes

Keep the chicken or vegetable broth warm by heating it slowly in a medium saucepan

When the pancetta is crispy, remove it from the pan and set it aside

Add the chopped onion to the same pan and cook for 34 minutes, or until transparent

Add the minced garlic and continue cooking for one or two more minutes

Toss the Arborio rice in the pan with the oil, onion, and garlic mixture, then add it

Simmer the rice for one to two minutes, or until the edges start to turn translucent

Add the white wine and stir continuously while cooking until the rice absorbs the wine

One ladleful at a time, start adding the warm broth to the rice, stirring constantly and letting each addition soak in before adding more

Continue cooking for another 18 to 20 minutes, or until the rice is creamy and tender

Add the grated Parmesan cheese, cooked pancetta, and saffron threads, along with the water they steeped in

To taste, add salt and pepper for seasoning

Season the salmon cubes with salt and pepper as the risotto cooks

Heat a small amount of olive oil in a different skillet over medium-high heat

After adding the salmon cubes, cook for 34 minutes, or until the salmon is browned on the outside but still slightly pink in the center

When the risotto is done, fold the cooked salmon cubes in gently
