Risotto Limone is a light and creamy Italian dish that highlights the vibrant flavors of fresh lemon. Made with Arborio rice, zesty lemon juice, fragrant lemon zest, white wine, and vegetable or chicken stock, this dish achieves its signature creaminess through the slow, methodical stirring process rather than heavy cream. Often finished with Parmesan cheese, a pat of butter, and fresh herbs like parsley, Risotto Limone delivers a perfect balance of tanginess and richness. As a dish rooted in Italian cuisine, it offers a substantial dose of carbohydrates, ideal for energy, while lemons provide a boost of vitamin C and antioxidants. However, some variations may be higher in saturated fats due to the addition of butter and cheese. For a lighter option, smaller portions or substitutions like reduced-fat cheese can reduce calorie content without compromising flavor. Pair it with leafy greens for a well-rounded, nutritious meal.
