Autumn Chicken and Squash
Risotto
4 boneless, skinless chicken breast halves, cut in bite-size pieces 1/2 ounce dried porcini mushrooms 3-1/2 cups chicken stock 3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil, divided 1 onion, chopped 2 cloves garlic, chopped 1-1/4 cups arborio rice 3/4 cup dry white wine 1/2 pound hubbard squash, peeled and chopped 1 medium zucchini, chopped 2 bay leaves 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper 1/3 cup dried cranberries 2 tablespoons finely chopped green onion 1/3 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese fresh rosemary sprigs
Soak porcini mushrooms for about 30 minutes in 1 cup hot
water; drain and chop, reserving liquid. In small saucepan,
place chicken stock and heat to simmer over medium heat; keep
warm. In large frypan, place 1-1/2 tablespoons of the oil over
medium-high heat; add chicken and cook about 5 minutes on each
side. Remove from heat; set aside. In large saucepan, heat
remaining oil over medium heat; add onion and garlic and saute
about 5 minutes. Add rice; stir and cook 1 minute. Add wine,
mushrooms, strained mushroom liquid, squash, zucchini and bay
leaves. Stir and bring to a boil; cook until liquid is almost
absorbed. Gradually add chicken stock as risotto thickens. Add
salt, pepper, chicken and cranberries, cooking about 10
minutes more or until rice is done. Stir in green onion and
serve topped with grated cheese and garnished with rosemary.
Makes 4 servings.
