Shrimp & Asparagus Risotto

A good Italian risotto is all about a slow simmer with plenty of aromatics. In this green-hued iteration, we took our time, layering on the flavors with asparagus, shallots, garlic, white wine, chicken stock, Parmesan, and basil. Garlicky shrimp are piled on top. For even more green goodness, we added a side of tender green beans with luscious spinach-pine nut pesto.
