Ingredients:

- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 2 chicken breasts, skinless and boneless

- 1 onion, finely chopped

- 2 garlic cloves, minced

- 1 cup Arborio rice

- 4 cups chicken stock

- 1 cup sliced mushrooms

- 1/2 cup dry white wine

- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter

- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Instructions:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

2. Add the onion and garlic to the same pan and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

3. Add the Arborio rice to the pan and stir to coat with the oil. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the rice is lightly toasted.

4. Add 1 cup of the chicken stock to the pan and stir until the liquid is absorbed.

5. Add the sliced mushrooms to the pan and continue to stir.

6. Pour in the white wine and stir until the liquid is absorbed.

7. Gradually add the remaining chicken stock, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring constantly and waiting until the liquid is absorbed before adding more. This process should take about 20-25 minutes.

8. Once the rice is cooked and the liquid is absorbed, remove the pan from the heat.

9. Chop the cooked chicken breasts into bite-sized pieces and add them to the pan.

10. Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and butter until melted and well combined.

11. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

12. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
