0.25 cup arborio rice

1 cup cremini mushrooms

1.5 cup low-sodium chicken broth

2 tbsp parmesan cheese

0.5 tbsp 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 thyme

PREPARATION

• 1

  Warm the chicken broth in a small saucepan over low heat so it is ready to be added to the rice.

• 2

  Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat and sauté the chicken until golden and cooked through, then remove and set aside.

• 3

  In the same skillet, sauté the diced onion and sliced mushrooms until the mushrooms are browned and tender.

• 4

  Add the minced garlic and arborio rice to the pan, stirring for one minute to lightly toast the rice grains.

• 5

  Pour in the warm broth one half-cup at a time, stirring constantly until the liquid is fully absorbed before adding the next ladle.

• 6

  Once the rice is creamy and tender, stir in the cooked chicken, parmesan cheese, sea salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme before serving.
