Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season beef chuck roast with salt and pepper, and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Remove and set aside.
  2. Add chopped onion and minced garlic to the same pot, sautéing for about 5 minutes until translucent.
  3. Pour in red wine, scraping the pot bottom to deglaze. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.
  4. Stir in beef broth, diced tomatoes, and Italian seasoning. Return the beef to the pot and let it simmer for about 2 hours.
  5. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add Arborio rice and stir for 2-3 minutes.
  6. Gradually add warmed chicken broth, stirring continuously until rice is creamy and al dente.
  7. Remove risotto from heat and mix in grated Parmesan cheese until melted.
  8. Serve sliced pot roast with Parmesan risotto, garnished with freshly chopped parsley.
