Step 1
In a blender, puree 1 cup peas with 1/2 cup broth until smooth. Set aside.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 cup arborio rice and stir until coated and slightly translucent, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Add 2 cups broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently. Wait until each addition is absorbed before adding more, until rice is creamy and tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 4
Stir in the pea puree and 1/2 cup parmesan. Season with salt and pepper. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.
Step 5
In a separate pan, sear 1/2 pound shrimp over medium-high heat until pink and opaque, about 2 minutes per side. Serve shrimp over risotto.
