Chicken Risoni
This Chicken Risoni recipe is the ultimate comfort food. It’s simple, tasty, creamy and is oh so good!
Risoni is small rice like pasta. This recipe is for 4 people if you are cooking for one or two, and want to reduce the amount of Risoni just double the amount of liquid vs pasta, i.e. 100g Risoni add 200ml stock. Add some steamed vegetables to bulk it out and add a little lemon juice to give it a zing!
I like to add a little chilli or Sumac to give the dish a lift.
