Tomato and Shrimp Risotto

Tomato and Shrimp Risotto

I've got another one pan recipe, and this one is also IBS friendly! The ingredients used here can be made completely low fodmap, but without sacrificing any taste. Since many of you have DM'ed and commented that you struggle with IBS, I wanted to make a recipe specifically for you! I used to think risotto was this incredibly difficult pasta dish, but it's actually so easy, and simple to make. 

 

Ingredients:

Makes ~2 servings

  • 1/2 c Arborio rice
  • 2 c broth/stock of choice (can also use salty water)
  • 6 oz tomato sauce
  • 1 tbsp oregano, chopped
  • 1 tbsp basil, chopped
  • 1-2 c shrimp
  • 1 tsp of each: salt, paprika, coconut sugar, thyme
  • pinch of cayenne
  • 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • salt
  • pepper
  • olive oil

 

Directions:

  1. Heat ~1 tbsp olive oil in a pan over medium heat.
  2. Once hot add shrimp and spice mixture (salt, paprika, coconut sugar, thyme) and sauté until cooked, about 5 minutes.
  3. Remove shrimp and add pot back to heat.
  4. Add Arborio rice plus 1/2 c of broth.
  5. Let the rice absorb the broth, about 5 minutes. Repeat the process a second time.
  6. Next, add another 1/2 c broth, the tomato sauce and oregano. Let the broth absorb, another ~5 minutes.
  7. Add your last 1/2 c of broth and let the rice absorb it. The Arborio rice should be tender, and the risotto should be thick, but not liquidy. 
  8. Once cooked, turn off the heat, add salt and pepper to taste, along with the basil and nutritional yeast and mix to combine.
  9. To serve, add risotto to a dish, followed by a spoonful of shrimp, and extra basil on top. 

 

If you do not follow a low fodmap diet and want to spice this recipe a bit more, feel free to sauté the shrimp with a little crushed garlic. Some other ways to change it up- you can also sub the nutritional yeast for parmesan cheese, add burrata when serving, or add 1/2 c of a dry white wine before adding the broth. So many endless options! Enjoy! 🫶
