Risotto can be an effort, an arm workout, but the flavors here make it all worth it: tender steak strips, several kinds of mushrooms (the mighty cremini and a lovely mushroom blend), fresh broccoli, and sweet tomatoes all top the creamy rice with grace, aplomb, and flavor, much to your taste buds' and stomach's delight. It's a bit more work than a microwave and a fork, but it's worth it. Tip: To remove the core of a tomato, carefully cut a shallow circle around the stem with a small knife, then remove circle.

If using filets mignon, sirloin steak, or NY strip steak, pat dry. Cook until steak reaches desired doneness, or 4-6 minutes per side for medium/medium-well. Rest, 3 minutes. Steak thickness can vary; if you receive a thinner steak, we recommend checking for doneness sooner. Serve alongside risotto.

Add 1/2 cup boiling water and stir often again until nearly all water is absorbed. Repeat this process, stirring often, 18-20 minutes.Taste risotto as you cook, checking for tenderness. When rice has no more “bite” or crunch, it's done. There may be water left.Remove from burner.
