Ingredients

This recipe for Roast Chicken and Mushroom Risotto is a hearty, comforting dish that is sure to be a winner at any dinner table. The ingredients you will need are: 2 chicken breasts, 2 cups of mushrooms, 1 onion, 2 cloves of garlic, 2 cups of Arborio rice, 4 cups of chicken broth, 1/2 cup of white wine, 1/2 cup of grated Parmesan cheese, 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 2 tablespoons of butter, salt and pepper to taste.

Instructions

To begin, preheat your oven to 400°F. Then, season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper, and place them on a baking sheet. Roast the chicken in the oven for 20 minutes, or until it is cooked through. When the chicken is done, remove it from the oven and set aside to cool. Once it is cool enough to handle, shred the chicken into small pieces.

While the chicken is cooking, heat the olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, garlic, and mushrooms and cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are tender and the mushrooms are beginning to brown. Add the Arborio rice and stir to coat in the oil and butter. Cook for another minute, stirring constantly, then pour in the white wine. Cook until the wine is absorbed, then add the chicken broth, a little at a time, stirring constantly until the broth is absorbed.

Continue adding the broth, a little at a time, stirring constantly until all of the broth is absorbed and the rice is tender. This will take about 20 minutes. Once the rice is done, stir in the shredded chicken, Parmesan cheese, and salt and pepper to taste. Serve the risotto warm and enjoy!
