Creamy Garlic Parmesan Risotto

1 1/2 cups Arborio rice

1/2 cup dry white wine
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons olive oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
Salt and black pepper to taste
Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

In a saucepan, warm the chicken or vegetable broth over low heat. Keep it on low heat throughout the cooking process.
In a large skillet or saucepan, heat the olive oil and 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat.
Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Stir in the Arborio rice and cook for 1-2 minutes, ensuring the grains are well-coated with the oil and garlic.
Pour in the dry white wine and cook for about 2 minutes, or until most of the liquid has been absorbed.

Continue this process of adding broth and stirring until the Arborio rice is creamy and cooked to your desired level of tenderness (usually about 18-20 minutes).
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and the remaining tablespoon of butter. Mix well.
Season your Creamy Garlic Parmesan Risotto with salt and black pepper to taste.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
