Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. • Finely chop brown onion and garlic. Cut chicken breast into 2cm chunks. • In a large frying pan, heat plant-based butter and a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion and sliced mushrooms, stirring, until softened, 5-6 minutes. • Add garlic & herb seasoning, arborio rice and half the garlic. Cook, stirring, until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water and vegetable stock powder and bring to the boil.

2

• Transfer risotto to a baking dish. • Cover tightly with foil. • Bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over high heat. • When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

TIP: 'Al dente' rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.

3

• Meanwhile, wipe out frying pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Cook panko breadcrumbs, stirring, until golden, 2-3 minutes. Add remaining garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Transfer pangrattato to a small bowl, then stir in the roasted almonds. Season to taste. • Thinly slice apple. In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season, then add apple and mixed salad leaves. Toss to coat.

4

• Stir plant-based basil pesto and cooked chicken through risotto. • Divide plant-based pesto, chicken and mushroom risotto between bowls. Sprinkle with almond pangrattato. • Serve with pear salad. Enjoy!
