Cooking Steps

1

• Half-fill a large saucepan with water, add a generous pinch of salt, then bring to the boil over high heat. • Cut chicken thigh into 2cm chunks.

Start the risotto
2

• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook mushrooms, stirring, until browned and softened, 6-8 minutes. Season and transfer to a bowl. • Return frying pan over high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook chicken, tossing occasionally, until browned and cooked through, 5-6 minutes.

3

• Meanwhile, Cook risoni in boiling water until ‘al dente’, 7-8 minutes. Drain risoni and set aside. • To pan with chicken, return mushrooms and add lemon pepper seasoning and Nan's special seasoning, tossing until fragrant, 1 minute. Set aside and cover to keep warm.

4

• Meanwhile, thinly slice pear into wedges. • In a large bowl, combine a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season. • Just before serving, add mixed salad leaves and pear and toss to combine.

5

• Add risoni to pan with chicken, stir through the butter and Parmesan cheese. • Stir through a splash of water to loosen risoni if needed. Season to taste.

6

• Divide chicken and mushroom risoni between bowls. • Serve with pear salad. Enjoy!
