INSTRUCTIONS
In medium saucepan, heat broth to a simmer; keep hot over very low heat. In
large heavy skillet, combine 2 tablespoons of the butter, the oil, onion
and garlic; cook over medium heat, stirring, 5 minutes or until
crisp-tender. Add rice; cook stirring, 3 minutes. Add wine and zest; cook
stirring, wine absorbed. Raise heat to medium-high. Stir in 1/2 cup hot
broth; cook, stirring, until most of the liquid evaporates (spoon leaves
track on bottom of pan, yet liquid surronds each grain). Cook, stirring, 10
minutes more, adding broth, 1/2 cup at a time, as liquid evaporates. Stir
in asparagus, bell pepper, squash and black pepper; cook 12 to 15 minutes
more; adding hot broth, 1/2 cup at a time, until rice is firm yet tender, a
creamy sauce forms and vegetables are tender. Remove from heat; stir in
remaining butter, the parsley and cheese. Serve immediately. Makes 8
servings.
