Ready in under 30 minutes, this Instant Pot Asparagus Risotto is creamy and so easy to make! No need to babysit this risotto over the stove, the Instant Pot does all the hard work for you!
Chop the onions and garlic. Set that aside. Cut the fresh asparagus into one inch pieces, removing the woody ends of the asparagus.
Turn the Instant Pot on saute mode. Add the olive oil and butter. Add the cut asparagus to the Instant Pot and cook for 2-3 minutes. Remove the asparagus for the Instant Pot.
Add the chopped onion and garlic and cook for 1-2 minutes. Add the Arborio rice and stir to make sure the Arborio rice does not stick.
Add the white wine and cook for 1 minute. Season with salt and black pepper. Pour the broth into the Instant Pot.
Cover the Instant Pot and make sure the lid is in the sealing position. Cook on high pressure for 6 minutes.
After 6 minutes, let the Instant Pot naturally release for 10 minutes. Quick release the remaining pressure and open the Instant Pot. Add the asparagus and parmesan cheese into the risotto.
