Instructions
Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and cook until beginning to soften, 3 minutes. Stir in garlic and 3 tsp. thyme; cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
Stir in rice to coat, then stir in broth. Increase heat to high and bring rice mixture to a boil; reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until liquid is absorbed, 30–35 minutes.
Off heat, stir in ham and edamame, cover, and let stand 5 minutes. Stir in Parmesan, parsley, remaining 2 tsp. thyme, and vinegar; season with salt and pepper. Top servings with pistachios.
