Mediterranean Chicken Risotto Recipes

Steps:

• Keep stock simmering.
• Heat oil in large pan and add chicken, cook until almost cooked through and add garlic, cook for another 1-2 minutes.
• Add rice and stir until grains are coated with oil and glistening.
• Add white wine and stir until it is absorbed by the rice grains.
• Start adding the hot stock 2 ladles at a time, stirring between additions until the liquid has been absorbed.
• After the last addition of stock add baby spinach leaves and stir until wilted.
• Add semi-dried tomatoes and olives, stir until heated through.
• Add 2 Tbsp Parmesan cheese and stir through.
• Serve with extra Parmesan if desired.

Steps:

• Heat 1/4 cup of the broth and the garlic to boiling in 12-inch nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in rice. Cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
• Pour 1/2 cup of the broth over rice mixture. Cook uncovered over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until liquid is absorbed. Continue cooking 15 to 20 minutes, adding broth 1/2 cup at a time and stirring occasionally, until rice is almost tender and creamy.
• Stir in remaining ingredients. Cook 1 minute.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onions and saute for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the onions are a dark golden brown. Remove from heat, stir in the balsamic vinegar and set aside.
• Heat the remaining oil in a separate large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the rice and mix well. Let heat for about 2 minutes, then pour in the wine. Reduce heat to medium low and start pouring in the broth about 1 cup at a time. Add more broth as each cup is absorbed. Continue in this manner until all the broth is absorbed and the rice is al dente, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the reserved onion mixture and allow to heat through. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and chicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish each serving with fresh thyme.
