I made it exactly as the recipe said. And even though I am still thinking of grilling the chicken rather than poaching it (or using rotisserie) it is fine just as written. It's been a long time since I've made a risotto - forgot that it's a great workout!
This was truly a wonderful dish. It was spicy - but the blue cheese cut that and with the creamyness of the risotto made it totally indulgent. We sorta just sat here and went "WOW" "WOW" it's a huge 15 on a scale of 1 - 10!!!
We'll have this again and again.
I was originally going to make the Romaine Salad with Creamy Lemon Dressing. It didn't happen, we had steamed whole green beans with browned butter & toasted almonds. Perfet with the risotto - fresh green and crunchy bits.
This is right up there with buffalo chicken mac & cheese!

You only live once . . . but if you do it right once should be enough!
