Details
Green pesto risotto with chicken is a creamy Italian classic where smooth risotto, juicy chicken, fresh green pesto, and sweet tomatoes come together for a flavorful and comforting meal.
Fun fact: risotto originates from Northern Italy and is traditionally made with special rice varieties such as Arborio or Carnaroli. By cooking the rice slowly and stirring regularly, you get its characteristic creamy texture, without the need for any cream.
Ingredients
Ingredients: risotto rice, vegetable broth, chicken thighs, dry white wine, Grana Padano, olive oil, onion, garlic, fresh green pesto, cherry tomatoes, basil.
Reheating
Microwave: remove the lid and cover, for example with a microwave-safe cover. Heat for 2–3 minutes at 800 W. Stir or shake and heat for another 30–60 seconds if necessary.
Pan: gently reheat in a pan with a small splash of oil or butter until the desired temperature is reached.
Oven: heat in an ovenproof dish for 15–30 minutes at 150 °C. Covering it prevents it from drying out.
