INGREDIENTS

5 oz chicken breast

0.25 cup arborio rice

1 cup cremini mushrooms

1 cup low-sodium chicken broth

1 tbsp parmesan cheese

1 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 cup yellow onion

1 clove garlic

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 tsp fresh parsley

PREPARATION

• 1

  Cut the chicken breast into bite-sized pieces and season with half of the sea salt and black pepper.

• 2

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken until golden and cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside.

• 3

  In the same skillet, add the diced yellow onion and sliced cremini mushrooms, sautéing until the mushrooms are browned and the onions are translucent.

• 4

  Stir in the minced garlic and arborio rice, toasting the grains for 1-2 minutes until the edges of the rice become slightly transparent.

• 5

  Reduce the heat to medium and begin adding the low-sodium chicken broth 0.25 cup at a time, stirring constantly and waiting for the liquid to be fully absorbed before adding the next portion.

• 6

  Once the rice is tender and has reached a creamy consistency, stir the cooked chicken back into the pan along with the parmesan cheese and remaining salt and pepper.

• 7

  Serve immediately, garnished with fresh chopped parsley for a bright finish.
