RISOTTO SCAMPI FRA DIAVOLO

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat. In a bowl, toss the shrimp with 2 tablespoons of the olive oil, 1 teaspoon of the crushed red pepper and some salt.

• Lower the heat to medium and add the remaining 3 tablespoons olive oil. Add the onion, some salt and pepper and the remaining 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper and saute until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

CHICKEN SCAMPI

Steps:

• Put olive oil and butter in skillet on low heat.
• Add the green onions and minced garlic and saute.
• Add Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
• Put chicken that has been cut into pieces in the skillet with the garlic onion and seasonings.
• Heat until chicken is no longer pink.
• I usually let the chicken sit with the other ingredients in the skillet for a few moments on low just to get the seasoning set in really well.
• I then put the tomatoes in to just heat through.
• I serve with the rice or noodles.

CHICKEN & MUSHROOM RISOTTO

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a large pan. Add the lardons and fry for 5 mins over a low-medium heat. Stir in the onion and fry for 10 mins more until the onion is soft but not coloured.
• Stir in the mushrooms and continue cooking, stirring, for 5 mins. Stir in the risotto rice and cook over a medium heat for 2 mins until the rice has started to turn translucent.
• Pour in the wine and allow it to bubble away over the heat. Pour in a quarter of the chicken stock and set a timer for 20 mins.
• Continue cooking, stirring very frequently, topping up with a splash more stock as it gets absorbed - this is best done in three more stages, until the rice is cooked and most of the stock has been absorbed (you may not need all the stock). The texture now should be creamy, like rice pudding.
• Stir through the chicken, warm briefly, then turn off the heat. Stir through the parmesan and parsley, cover and leave to rest for 5 mins to allow more liquid to be absorbed into the rice. Season to taste and serve with extra parmesan, if you like.
