I love mushrooms. It will never replace beef or anything proteinaceous, but it’s a good alternative. I will take portobello burgers over regular burgers anytime!

I typically like my risotto rich and creamy—that means ungodly amounts of butter, cream and cheese. I already made my sinful Beef and Potato Casserole for lunch so I am tapped out for cheese and cream.

D tries to avoid meats in weekends. If I have to tempt him, he will oblige to chicken, that’s it. So I make him meatless dishes whenever I can.

This is one of my one-pot recipes so that’s why i’m using a sauce pot instead of a frying pan. If you still haven’t figured this out from me, I am really lazy in doing uninteresting things i.e. washings pots and pans.

There are some recipes of risotto that makes you cover the pot then walk away. I find those make the rice really mushy, for some reason. So I keep mine open and stir it from time to time. This would cook for about 25-30min in medium flame.

For the mean time, I sauté marinated chicken breast. This is a no-brainer, so it won’t get an individual post. Cut chicken breast to desired size, marinate in olive oil and favorite herbs for about an hour. Saute. I use these chunks to top in salads, risotto or pasta.

This turned out perfect!

Poured some red wine and D’s dinner is served. Am i the best wife ever, or what???
