Chicken & Bacon Risotto
4 Tbsp. Butter + Extra
2 Tbsp. Olive Oil
1/2 Tbsp. Garlic, Minced
1 C. Arborio Rice
-Mushrooms and Onions Optional
4 1/2 C. Chicken Stock
2 Tsp. Fresh Chives, Chopped
1/2 Tbsp. Fresh Rosemary
1 Tbsp. Green Onion, Chopped
1 Tsp. Salt
1 Chicken Breast, Cooked and Cut into small pieces (I chose to cook mine in white wine and honey)
3-4 Thin Slices of Bacon, Cooked until brown
1/2 C. White Wine (I chose Riesling for this dish)
1/4 C. Grated Parmesan Cheese
Heat butter and olive oil in large pan at medium heat. Add garlic and rice and cook until golden brown. Add any mushrooms/onions if choosing to do so. Add one cup of chicken stock, chives, rosemary, green onions, and salt. Let cook until rice has soaked up the stock. Continue adding stock 1/2 C. at a time. After the fourth cup of stock has been added, add chicken, bacon and white wine. Mix and let rice soak up wine before adding the last half cup of stock. When last bit of stock is left, add about 1/2 Tbsp. of extra butter and Parmesan cheese to ensure it is nice and creamy.
