Preparation

Step 1
Place the chicken broth and the wine in a medium-size saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and keep at a simmer. Heat the olive oil in a large, wide pot over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring constantly, until soft, about 3 minutes. Add the rice to the shallots and stir to combine.
Step 2
Ladle in ½ cup of the chicken broth mixture and stir constantly with a wooden fork until most of the liquid is absorbed. Continue adding broth ½ cup at a time and stirring until rice is tender, about 50 minutes. After 45 minutes, stir in the shrimp.
Step 3
Stir in the steamed artichoke pieces, oregano, lemon zest, salt and pepper. Divide among 4 bowls and sprinkle with the raw artichoke heart strips and parsley. Serve immediately.

I added a bunch of chopped garlic to mine based on comments and my family loved it. I combined 2 fresh artichokes and 1 can of artichokes as that is what I had.

Not a good recipe. Followed it to the letter and the taste was just unpleasant.

I made this with canned artichoke and added saffron to the broth. I didn’t have Arborio so used Asian rice. It was very good, maybe could have used a kick but overall I would make this again.
