  • Heat chicken broth in a stockpot over medium-low heat until warmed, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon butter and olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan until butter melts. Add onion and sauté until translucent, about 2 minutes. Stir in rice until coated, then cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Pour wine into rice mixture; cook and stir until liquid is absorbed, about 5 minutes. Add one ladle hot broth and cook, stirring constantly, until broth is absorbed. Continue adding and stirring in one ladle broth at a time until rice is tender but firm to the bite, 20 to 30 minutes. If you run out of broth before rice is cooked, finish cooking with hot water.
  • Stir in Parmesan, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, truffle oil, and milk until fully incorporated, then season with parsley, salt, and pepper. Serve immediately.
