Chicken & Mushroom Risotto

Tips: A risotto should have moist but separated grains. Stock should be added a little at a time and only when the last addition has been completely absorbed.
Prep Time: 5 min
Cook Time: about 1 hr
Yield:4

INGREDIENTS:
generous 1/2 cup butter
2 lb skinless, boneless chicken, thinly sliced
1 large onion, chopped
2 1/2 cups risotto rice
2 1/2 cups chicken stock
2/3 cup white wine
1 tsp crumbled saffron strands
salt and pepper
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese, to serve
1 cup portabello mushrooms, chopped
DIRECTIONS:
  1. Heat 4 tbsp of the butter in a deep skillet and cook the chicken and onion until golden brown. Add the mushrooms.

  2. Add the rice, stir well, and cook over low heat for 15 minutes.

  3. Heat the stock until boiling and gradually add to the rice. Add the wine, saffron, and salt and pepper to taste and mix well. Simmer gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally and adding more stock if necessary.

  4. Set aside for 2-3 minutes. Just before serving, add a little more stock and simmer for 10 minutes. Serve the risotto, sprinkled with the grated Parmesan cheese and the remaining butter.
