Creamy Butternut Squash Risotto with Pan-Seared Chicken and Sage
A comforting, elegant dish featuring tender pan-seared chicken paired with a velvety butternut squash risotto accented by fragrant sage. Each bite delivers a balance of savory and subtly sweet flavors, making it a warming meal perfect for any time of day.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Chicken Breast
1/4 cup dry Arborio Rice
1/2 cup cubed Butternut Squash
1 cup Low-Sodium Chicken Broth
1/4 cup chopped Onion
1 Tbsp grated Parmesan Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
4 Fresh Sage Leaves
PREPARATION
Pat the chicken breast dry and season with salt and pepper.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with olive oil. Add the chicken breast and pan-sear for about 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through and golden. Remove and set aside to rest.
In a saucepan, heat a small drizzle of olive oil and sauté the chopped onion until soft and translucent.
Add the Arborio rice to the onions and toast for 1-2 minutes until lightly translucent at the edges.
Stir in the cubed butternut squash and a couple of fresh sage leaves.
Pour in the low-sodium chicken broth gradually, stirring frequently. Allow the liquid to absorb before adding more, cooking until the rice is tender and creamy, about 18-20 minutes.
Once the risotto reaches a creamy consistency, stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and adjust seasoning as needed.
Slice the rested chicken breast and serve it atop a generous portion of the butternut squash risotto. Garnish with extra sage leaves if desired.
