So my gourmet chef of a sister strikes again. This time, with savoury pea risotto and succulent lemon chicken (with a side sauce too!). She gets fancy guys. I don't know if I'll ever have the patience to cook risotto. Considering you have to constantly stir over the heated pot, dripping sweat, checking on everything else that's cooking. But I do love to eat it so I will give it a whirl one day and share my experience with y'all! She paired this meal with some good
ol' homemade
bruschetta and buttered carrots.
MMmmMMm.
To her, everything is 'easy to make'. And although she lets me share her recipes with you, you'll never be able to eyeball everything the way she does. This woman needs no recipes! But, I promise you, it's not too hard to attempt at home and you'll continue to impress your friends. Her risotto is prepared by
sauteing onions and garlic first, then adding the rice for 2 minutes. Here's the repetitive part. Adding ladles of chicken stock, stirring, waiting for the rice to absorb the liquid and then continuing until desired consistency. Repeat until rice is '
al dente'.
The lemon chicken marinade consists of fresh rosemary, thyme, olive oil, lots of lemon juice and lemon zest and marinated for at least 4 hours or overnight. Grill or roast in the oven, squeeze lemon on top and season generously with salt and pepper to finish. Juicy AND healthy, this is a killer combination. :)
