This chicken and tomato risotto has it all; it is colored and has a creamy and smooth texture. Making it does not involve any complications, but like all risottos it requires some patience. The ingredients are also simple and inexpensive so there is no excuse not to prepare it.
The risotto is cooked over low heat. Stir the rice Continuously is one of the keys to achieving a good risotto, so we will have to dedicate 100% of our attention to the preparation of this dish. Another key is not to add more broth, until the previous saucepan has been absorbed by the rice. We will tell you more in detail in the file.
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 knob of butter
- ½ white onion, minced
- A tablespoon of fresh rosemary

- In a low saucepan, heat the oil and butter over medium heat.
- We incorporate the onion and cook until tender.
- We add the rosemary and the chicken and cook a couple more minutes.
- We pour in the tomato sauce and the white wine; we remove and leave let the wine reduce a couple of minutes over medium-high heat.
- We incorporate the rice and we stir a couple of minutes. Then we lower the heat and pour two ladles of hot broth.
