Ingredients
1 shallot
¼ oz fresh rosemary
1 lemon
½ lb broccoli
5 oz arborio rice
12 oz pkg boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 pkt chicken broth concentrate
2 (¾ oz) grated Parmesan Milk
How to make it
1
Prep ingredients. Finely chop half of the shallot (save rest for own use). Pick 1 tablespoon rosemary leaves from stems (save rest for own use). Squeeze 2 teaspoons lemon juice; cut remaining into wedges. Cut broccoli into 1-inch florets, if necessary. In a liquid measuring cup, whisk to combine 4 cups water and ¾ teaspoon salt.
2
Toast rice. Heat 1 tablespoon each of butter and oil in a medium skillet over medium. Add rice and half of the chopped shallots. Cook, stirring, until rice is toasted and shallots are softened, about 2 minutes. Add ½ cup of the salted water; cook, stirring, until nearly absorbed, 1-2 minutes.
3
Finish rice. Continue adding ½ cup of the remaining salted water at a time, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until all of the water is nearly absorbed, 25-30 minutes (keep at a strong simmer, adjusting heat if necessary). Rice will be al dente and suspended in a thick sauce. Stir in all but 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, ½ teaspoon of the lemon juice, and a generous amount of pepper.
4
Cook broccoli & chicken. Preheat broiler with a rack in the center. On a rimmed baking sheet, toss broccoli with 1 tablespoon oil and season with salt and pepper. Broil until tender and charred, 8-10 minutes. Pat chicken dry; season with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a medium skillet over medium-high. Add chicken; cook until browned and cooked through, 3-4 minutes per side.
5
Start pan sauce. Transfer chicken to a plate; reduce heat to medium. To same skillet, add rosemary leaves, remaining shallots, and 1 tablespoon butter. Cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add broth concentrate, 1 teaspoon of the lemon juice (or more to taste), and ¼ cup water; bring to a simmer, scraping up any browned bits from bottom of skillet.
6
Finish pan sauce & serve. Season pan sauce to taste with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, until reduced by half. Add 1 tablespoon butter; cook until melted. Optionally, stir 1 tablespoon butter into risotto. Serve risotto with remaining Parmesan over top. Slice chicken if desired and drizzle pan sauce over top. Serve broccoli and lemon wedges alongside. Enjoy!
