    Sounds good! I am not a big shrimp fan, but I bet FI would love it!

    Is it easy?  I can't do anything that's actively time consuming, but this sounds yummy.

    Well, if you cook the mushrooms and shrimp while you're making the risotto (it all gets added together at the very end) then the total cooking time takes about 30 minutes. Any type of risotto needs attention as it needs to be stirred fairly frequently and the broths gets added in small batches at few minute intervals. But I was able to sort laundry  while I was cooking too, so you aren't glued to the stove.

    I actually hate mushrooms, despise them, but FI loves them and I made the dish knowing he would love it and since the mushrooms are added at the very end there isn't a mushroom flavor (or shrimp either) through the whole dish. Seperate, but together lol. I was surprised at how flavorful the risotto was, as all that is used to flavor it is the onion and garlic, broth, and sherry (I used a sherry cooking wine).
