Method:


  •  Heat the oil in a non stick pan, and gently fry the celery and onion for 4-5 minutes.
  •  Stir in the chicken, rice and mushrooms and cook for 2-3 minutes before adding 100ml of boiling water.
  • Stir, bring to the boil and then reduce the heat, simmering, and stirring occasionally. Stir in more water as required until the rice is tender – around 20-25 minutes.
  • Meanwhile cook the green beans until just tender.
  • Serve the risotto with the beans.
  • The risotto can be frozen for up to 3 months once cooled, and reheated until piping hot.


Serve with soft cooked carrot batons.
