Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breast, cut into small pieces
  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 cup white wine

Method

  1. Heat the olive oil and butter in a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium heat.

  3. Add the chicken to the pan and sauté until the chicken is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

  6. Add the chicken broth to the pan one ladleful at a time, stirring constantly and allowing each ladleful to be absorbed before adding the next.
  7. Continue adding the chicken broth and stirring until the rice is tender and creamy, about 25 minutes.
  8. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped thyme leaves and cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Notes

  • You can substitute chicken broth with vegetable broth.
  • If you don't have white wine, you can use chicken broth instead.
  • It's important to stir the rice constantly to ensure that it doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot.
  • If the rice is too dry, add more broth or water until it reaches the desired consistency.
