This simple scallop risotto makes for an impressive main dish.

Stirring the risotto often results in a creamy, rich end product.

Add rice; cook, stirring often, until toasty and fragrant, about 2 minutes.

Increase heat to medium-high; add wine and cook, undisturbed, until almost evaporated, about 1 minute.

Stir in Parmesan and 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.

Pat scallops very thoroughly dry; sprinkle evenly with pepper and the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.

Serve over the risotto; top evenly with the brown butter.

Garnish with parsley, if desired.
