5 cups salmon stock (or canned low-fat chicken stock)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup diced white onion
1 garlic clove, minced
1 1/2 cups arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (12 ounce) salmon fillets, skin and pin bones remove, cut into bite size pieces

3 tablespoons chopped of fresh mint
3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat leaf parsley
2 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon

3 ounces ricotta salata cheese, crumbled

1
In a 2-quart saucepan, bring the stock to a simmer.
2
In a heavy 4-quart saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat; saute the onion and garlic until translucent but not brown, about 3 minutes.
3
Add the rice and stir until the grains are well coated with oil, about 1 minute.
4
Add the wine; let it come to a boil, and cook, stirring constantly, until most of the wine evaporates.
5
Add 1/2 cup of the stock to the rice and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice has almost completely absorbed the liquid.
6
Adjust the heat so the risotto is kept at a slow simmer; repeat by adding 1/2 cup of the liquid at a time, stirring until it is almost fully absorbed before adding more.
7
Reserve 1/4 cup of the liquid for adding at the end.
8
After about 18 minutes, the rice will be plump, creamy, and cooked through but still slightly chewy.
9
Stir in the salmon and the remaining 1/4 cup of stock; stir gently until the salmon is cooked through, about 3 minutes.
10
Stir in the lemon zest, lemon juice, and fresh herbs; season to taste with salt and pepper.
11
Spoon the risotto into warmed shallow bowls; garnish each serving with some of the cheese; serve immediately.
