Mushroom And Chicken Risotto Recipes

CHICKEN & MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• In a large pot heat oil and add mushrooms and chicken and cook through until cooked. Remove from pot.
• Using the same pot, add butter and saute onions and garlic in butter and leftover oil mixture until translucent. Add the rice and stir until the rice turns opaque - about two minutes.
• Add the wine, salt and pepper to the rice and stir frequently until the wine has been absorbed into the rice.
• Add 1/2 cup of the heated chicken stock and stir frequently until absorbed. The rice and broth should bubble gently.
• Continue to cook the rice, adding chicken stock 1/2 cup at a time and allowing the rice to absorb it before adding the next 1/2 cup.
• Cook rice this way until tender which should take about 25-30 minutes.
• Just before the last batch of stock has been absorbed into the rice, add the chicken and mushroom mixture back into the pot. Stir through.
• Add 1/2 cup of grated parmesan cheese, the parsley and the cream and stir through.
• Remove from heat when all the remaining stock has been absorbed and the risotto mix is a thick creamy consistency.
• Serve immediately. The remaining parmesan can be added to each serve if requested.

CHICKEN & MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large pan. Add the lardons and fry for 5 mins over a low-medium heat. Stir in the onion and fry for 10 mins more until the onion is soft but not coloured.
• Stir in the mushrooms and continue cooking, stirring, for 5 mins. Stir in the risotto rice and cook over a medium heat for 2 mins until the rice has started to turn translucent.
• Pour in the wine and allow it to bubble away over the heat. Pour in a quarter of the chicken stock and set a timer for 20 mins.
• Continue cooking, stirring very frequently, topping up with a splash more stock as it gets absorbed - this is best done in three more stages, until the rice is cooked and most of the stock has been absorbed (you may not need all the stock). The texture now should be creamy, like rice pudding.
• Stir through the chicken, warm briefly, then turn off the heat. Stir through the parmesan and parsley, cover and leave to rest for 5 mins to allow more liquid to be absorbed into the rice. Season to taste and serve with extra parmesan, if you like.

RISOTTO WITH CHICKEN AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, bring broth and water to a simmer; keep hot. In another large saucepan, heat 2 tablespoons butter and oil over medium heat. Add mushrooms and onion; cook and stir 6-8 minutes or until tender. Add rice; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until rice is coated., Stir in wine and lemon juice. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer; cook and stir until wine mixture is absorbed. Add hot broth mixture, 1/2 cup at a time, cooking and stirring until broth has been absorbed after each addition, until rice is tender but firm to the bite and risotto is creamy., Stir in chicken, cheese, parsley, salt, pepper and remaining butter; heat through. Serve immediately.

MUSHROOM CHICKEN RISOTTO

• Combine flour, salt, pepper, and garlic.
• Dredge chicken in flour mixture.
• Heat oil in heavy dutch oven.
• Add chicken and mushrooms. Brown for 5-10 minutes. Set aside and cover to keep warm.

• Add arborio rice and wine and heat through.
• Begin adding warmed chicken broth to rice and onion mixture. A ladle is helpful in this part.
• Add 1/2-1 cup broth at a time. Stir continuously. This part is very important, you must keep stirring or it will stick.
• As the broth is absorbed continue adding more broth until you have used the entire saucepan. This may take 15-25 minutes.
• After all the broth has been added, taste the rice. If it is not done (still with some bite in the center), add water until it is cooked.
• Stir in the chicken and mushroom mixture.
• Add butter and parmesan cheese and stir until melted.
• Serve with asparagus or a fresh green salad.

RISOTTO WITH MUSHROOMS AND CHICKEN LIVERS

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken livers. Cut them in small pieces, about half-inch squares, removing any sinew or membrane. Dry them on paper towels.
• Heat two tablespoons of the oil in a heavy four-quart saucepan. Add the chicken livers and saute, stirring, until they are lightly browned.
• While the chicken livers are cooking, bring the stock to a simmer in another saucepan.
• When the livers are done, remove them from the pan and set them aside. Add the remaining oil to the pan, along with the onion and mushrooms. Saute over medium heat until the onion is tender. Stir in the rice and cook for a minute or so; then stir in the wine. Cook over medium heat until the wine has been absorbed. Stir in the thyme.
• Begin to add the stock half a cup at a time, stirring constantly. As the stock is absorbed, add more. After about 20 minutes the rice should be tender. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Fold in the chicken livers, and cook another minute or so, until they are heated through. Serve at once with Parmesan cheese on the side.

• Ladle in a quarter of the stock and continue cooking, stirring occasionally and topping up with more stock as it absorbs (you may not need all the stock).
• When most of the stock has been absorbed and the rice is nearly cooked, add the chicken and stir to warm through. Season well and stir in the parmesan and parsley. Serve scattered with extra parmesan, if you like.

When the rice has taken on a pale, golden color, pour in wine, stirring constantly until the wine is fully absorbed. Add 1/2 cup broth to the rice, and stir until the broth is absorbed. Continue adding broth 1/2 cup at a time, stirring continuously, until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is al dente, about 15 to 20 minutes.
