Ingredients:
Makes nine servings 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 small onion, finely chopped 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped 1 cup uncooked Arborio rice 2 cups chicken broth or stock 1 cup Nestlé Carnation Evaporated Lowfat 2 Percent Milk 1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon lemon zest (optional) Salt and ground black pepper to taste 1/4 cup (about 1 ounce) finely shredded Parmesan cheese

Instructions:
Heat oil in medium, nonstick saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, for about 3 minutes or until onion is tender. Stir in garlic and cook until aroma is released (do not brown). Stir in rice; cook, stirring frequently, for 1 minute. Stir in broth and evaporated milk. Reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring frequently, for 20-25 minutes or until rice is tender but firm to the bite (mixture will be creamy and more stirring will be needed as it becomes thicker). Remove from heat; stir in peas and lemon zest, if desired. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately with Parmesan cheese.
