4 servings
30 minutes
Chicken and soy sauce risotto is an unusual blend of Italian classic and Asian notes. Born in Italy as a symbol of simplicity and refined taste, risotto has many variations. In this recipe, velvety rice infused with white wine aroma meets the rich, slightly caramel flavor of soy sauce. Tender pieces of chicken marinated with garlic add depth of flavor, while herbs finish the composition with freshness. The dish is characterized by balance — the creaminess of the rice harmonizes with the spiciness of the chicken and delicacy of spices. Perfect for a cozy dinner or special evening when you want to try something new and exquisite. Adding grated cheese and butter makes the risotto particularly rich and pleasant in taste.
