Chicken and Mushroom Risotto

Uncle Ben's makes an express meal (which is delicious) called "Chicken and Mushroom Risotto".  It is high in syn value, but I was sure I could make it in a healthier way!

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM RISOTTO
(serves 2)

250g Risotto Rice
1 1/2 pints water or chicken broth, heated
2 cloves garlic
1 tsp dried basil
1 tsp dried rosemary
salt & pepper
frylight
1/2 onion, chopped
12  medium mushroom, chopped roughly
2 Chicken breasts - cooked


1.  Spray frylight in large skillet.  Put on high heat, and add risotto rice.  Add mushrooms, onion and garlic.    leave on heat 4-5 minutes, stirring regularly to keep rice from toasting too much.

2.  Add heated broth, herbs and salt and pepper.  Bring to boil, then simmer on med. heat for 20 minutes.

3.  Add chicken, and remove from heat.  Serve!

For alternate tastes - add formage frais for a more creamy risotto (free), or 14 grams of grated cheese (which will be counted as a half a healthy extra A, or 3 syns)

It was delicious!!  Certainly something I'll make again!
