Ingredients
  • 1 pound lump crabmeat
  • 1 clove garlic , minced
  • 5 cups low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
  • 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 shallots , finely chopped
  • 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice
  • 1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
  • Directions
    Place crabmeat in a medium bowl; pick through for any shells and discard. Add garlic and toss well. Refrigerate.

    In a large saucepan, bring broth to a boil; reduce to simmer. Add lemon juice and keep warm on a back burner.

    In a large, heavy-bottom saucepan over medium heat, add 1 tablespoon olive oil. When just smoking, add shallots and stir quickly with a wooden spoon until lightly golden and tender. Add rice and stir 1 minute to coat. Add 1/2 cup hot broth, stirring constantly. Continue cooking until almost all liquid is absorbed, then add another 1/2 cup broth. Repeat until rice is tender and almost all broth has been used, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from heat and add crab; stir until blended. Add 1/4 cup broth and remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, lemon zest, and thyme; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and serve.
