Chicken Soup Risotto Style!
- 4 chicken breasts or 6 chicken thighs, cubed
- 2 medium sized onions, diced
- 5 medium carrots, cut the way you want
- 3 celery ribs, sliced
- 1 cup sushi rice or 1 cup arborio rice, must use rice that will absorb all the liquid
- 1 (500 g) box chicken stock
- 3 cups water
- 2 tablespoons concentrated chicken bouillon
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/4 - 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
- salt and pepper
- On med-high heat saute cubes of chicken in olive oil until cooked through.
- Add some salt and pepper to taste.
- Add veggies, herbs, and salt again for flavor and to sweat the veggies
- Deglaze the pan if it`s sticking, with 1/2 of water or stock. Get all the bits off the bottom -- that`s flavor!
- Add chicken stock, water, bouillion and worchestershire sauce- incorporate well.
- Bring to a boil and reduce heat.
- Once the carrots are tender or even 15 mins before the carrots are done, add the rice.
- Let boil for a minute or two, then reduce the heat and cover -- keep an eye on it and stir when needed.
- It`s ready when the liquid has been absorbed by the rice and you have a creamy consistency -- and of course when the rice is tender!LOL.
