From the site .au Heaps of healthy easy recipes on there! I love risotto, but have struggled to find healthy ones I'd actually like to eat. This one is good. Ingredients:
2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth |
2 cups water |
1 cup arborio rice |
1 cup boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked (or smoked chicken) |
1 lemon, juice and zest |
3 tablespoons basil pesto |
2 cups rocket |
Directions:
1. Bring stock and water to a simmer in a saucepan. In another saucepan, add rice and 1/2 cup stock mixture over low heat. Stir until stock is absorbed.
2. Keep adding 1/4 cupfuls of stock mixture, stirring until rice is al dente or cooked to your liking. Add chicken, lemon juice and zest. Stir until heated through.
3. Add pesto, stir until well combined. Serve with rocket. If desired, sprinkle with parmesan.
