Curry Chicken & Mushroom Risotto

Risotto was popularized by Italian cuisine and it begins when rice is cooked in a broth until it reaches a creamy consistency. Once you have this base, you can truly make it your own.

How to make Curry Chicken & Mushroom Risotto:

  • Begin by seasoning your chicken with turmeric, curry powder, and paprika. Searing the chicken results in the ideal texture; and did I mention how moist and tender this chicken will be?
  • After removing your chicken from the heat, lower the heat to medium and add the butter, minced garlic, onions, and white mushrooms.
  • Once the onions are translucent, add the arborio rice and cook for a few minutes before adding cooking wine, oregano, Himalayan sea salt, and black pepper.
  • Add the chicken stock and coconut milk to the pan, stir and bring to a boil.
  • Place your chicken thighs back into the pot, cover, and bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes and add remaining ingredients once out of the oven.
