Servings: persons

1 lb chicken breast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 cup onion, chopped
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 (16 ounce) package arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, gourmet blend if available
1 (48 ounce) can chicken broth
1/2 cup butter
1 cup parmesan cheese, freshly grated

1
Pour chicken broth into a saucepan and heat on low. This will be simmering while you are preparing the dish.
2
Combine flour, salt, pepper, and garlic.
3
Dredge chicken in flour mixture.
4
Heat oil in heavy dutch oven.
5
Add chicken and mushrooms. Brown for 5-10 minutes. Set aside and cover to keep warm.
6
Add onion and cook 3 minutes, until translucent.
7
Add arborio rice and wine and heat through.
8
Begin adding warmed chicken broth to rice and onion mixture. A ladle is helpful in this part.
9
Add 1/2-1 cup broth at a time. Stir continuously. This part is very important, you must keep stirring or it will stick.
10
As the broth is absorbed continue adding more broth until you have used the entire saucepan. This may take 15-25 minutes.
11
After all the broth has been added, taste the rice. If it is not done (still with some bite in the center), add water until it is cooked.
12
Stir in the chicken and mushroom mixture.
13
Add butter and parmesan cheese and stir until melted.
14
Serve with asparagus or a fresh green salad.
