"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

cook bacon in a large pot until crisp

at medium heat, add the onion and cook in the bacon fat until translucent**

deglaze pot with white wine and let it simmer down for a couple minutes

add one cup of chicken broth and bring it to a simmer while stirring slowly

Personal Notes:
**(alternatively: one could drain the bacon fat, add olive oil, and cook the onion in that)

It is imperative to stir slowly but constantly from beginning to end! This keeps the rice from sticking to the bottom and it creates that creamy texture.
