Preparation
In a skillet over high heat, mix the chicken stock and 3 1/2 cups of water. Wait for it to boil and lower the heat to low and keep bubbling a little.
In another pan, over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter with the olive oil. Add the chopped echalots and sauté until translucent (2-3 minutes).
Add the rice and stir until it becomes opaque, about 3 minutes.
Add 3/4 cup of the boiling broth and adjust the heat to keep the stock "almost" boiling (it should bubble very lightly).
Stir constantly while the rice absorbs the broth, for 3 minutes.
Continue adding the broth in 3/4 cup each time and stirring until the rice is creamy and smooth, but a little firm in the center, like 20-25 minutes. (Reserve 1/2 cup of the chicken stock).
Add the lemon juice to 1/2 cup of the reserved chicken stock and add to the rice, little by little. Also add 3 tablespoons butter, lemon zest, and grated Parmesan. Stir at all times.
Season with salt.
If desired, add the chopped chervil (or thyme, or chopped parsley).
