RISOTTO WITH SOLE

INGREDIENTS:
1                            Stick of unsalted butter
1.5 lbs                    Sole fillets
to taste                   Salt
to taste                   Ground black pepper
2 Cups                   Bottle clam broth
1                            Small onion, finely shopped
2 Cups                   Arborio Rice
1 Cup                     Frozen baby peas, thawed
2 Tbsp                    Fresh chives, snipped
2 Tbsp                    Fresh parsley, finely chopped


PROCEDURE:

1) In a skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter. Season the fillets with salt and pepper, and cook over moderately high heat, turning once, until just white throughout, about 5 minutes. Transfer the fish to a plate and break it up into 1 inch chunks.

2) In a saucepan, mix the clam broth with 5 cups of water. Bring to a simmer and keep warm. In another saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the onion and cook over low to moderate heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the rice and cook well until coated with butter, about 1 minute. Add 1 cup of the warm broth and cover over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until nearly absorbed. Continue adding the broth 1/2 cup at a time and stirring constantly until nearly absorbed between additions. The risotto is done when the rice is al dente and suspended in a thick, creamy sauce, about 20 minutes total. Season with salt and pepper

3) Add the peas and the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter to the risotto and cook until the peas are warmed through and the butter is melted. Remove from the heat. Gently fold in the chives and parsley along with the fish and any accumulated fish juices.
