Instructions
-
Heat olive oil in a large saucepan over medium-low heat. Add leek and garlic, cooking and stirring until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the rice and cook for an additional 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
-
Pour in 1 1/2 cups of chicken broth and bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the remaining chicken broth and wine, then increase the heat to medium and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
-
Stir in the scallops, shrimp, peas, and red pepper. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until most of the liquid has been absorbed and the seafood is fully cooked, about 5 minutes. When the rice is tender and creamy, finish by seasoning with Parmesan cheese, fresh basil, lemon juice, and pepper to taste.
