• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Boil the kettle. • In a heatproof bowl or jug, combine the boiling water (2 cups for 2 people / 4 cups for 4 people), mushroom powder and chicken-style stock powder. Set aside. • Finely chop onion and garlic. Thinly slice button mushrooms.
• In a large frying pan, heat 1/2 the butter and a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook onion and mushrooms, stirring, until tender, 5 minutes. • Add garlic and arborio rice and cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
• Pour mushroom liquid into the frying pan, bring to the boil, then remove from heat. Transfer risotto to a baking dish. • Cover tightly with foil and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes.
TIP: 'Al dente' rice is cooked through but still slightly firm in the centre.
• When the risotto has 10 minutes cook time remaining, place chicken breast between two sheets of baking paper. Pound chicken with a meat mallet or rolling pin until it is an even thickness, about 1cm-thick. • Lay out two slices of prosciutto, then place a chicken breast on top. Wrap prosciutto slices around chicken. Repeat with remaining prosciutto and chicken. • Return the frying pan to medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When oil is hot, cook prosciutto-wrapped chicken, seam-side down first, until golden and cooked through, 3-5 minutes on each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate to rest.
TIP: It's OK if the prosciutto slices tear!
TIP: Chicken is cooked when it is no longer pink inside.
• Meanwhile, roughly chop herbs. Slice lemon into wedges. • When the risotto is done, remove from oven, then stir through grated Parmesan cheese and remaining butter. Season to taste. • In a medium bowl, combine salad leaves, a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice.
TIP: Stir through a splash of water to loosen the risotto if needed.
• Slice prosciutto-wrapped chicken. Roughly chop roasted almonds. • Divide mushroom-baked risotto between plates and top with prosciutto-wrapped chicken. • Sprinkle over herbs and almonds. • Serve with green salad and any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
