1 Cup of Chardonnay or other dry white wine
1 Tbsp. of fresh garlic, minced
1/2 Tsp. of dried thyme

Directions on Cooking:
Use a large Dutch oven. Heat oil over medium heat. Saute sausage and onion. Onion must be translucent after about 3 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook for half a minute more. Add rice and wine. Stir 1-2 minutes or until wine is absorbed.
Lower heat to medium-low and stir in 3 cups broth. Let it simmer for 15 minutes uncovered until broth is absorbed. Keep on adding stock 1/4 cup at a time, and stir until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender and creamy. This should take 5 minutes more.
Add peas and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese. Cook it 1 more minute. Season with black pepper to taste. Top with parsley and garnish with remaining cheese. Serve immediately after cooking.
