Easiest-ever risotto, here we come! Let's be honest, no one really has the time to stand over the stove, waiting for perfectly cooked creamy rice, after sautéing onions, adding wine, then slowly pouring in simmering broth, ladleful by ladleful. Instead, reach for your Instant Pot, and say goodbye to the days when you worked up an appetite (and a seriously sore arm) all in the name of parmesan risotto.

We sauté onions and garlic and then add the rice, then the wine, and after it absorbs, we add broth. Lock on the lid, and walk away. No more stirring required thanks to this Instant Pot Risotto!
