The broth should simmer slowly until the rice has absorbed any liquids. Add another one or two ladles of broth and repeat the process until rice is al dente and you have used all of the chicken broth. Remove the skillet from the heat and stir in parsley, Boursin cheese and Parmesan. Season with sea salt and fresh cracked black pepper to taste. GRASSROOTS SAUTEED CHARD 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 tablespoons shallots, minced 1 large bunch Swiss chard (ribs removed and leaves roughly chopped) cracked black pepper In a heavy, nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add shallots and cook gently until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. (Do not burn shallots.) Turn up heat and add Swiss chard. Cook, stirring, until chard begins to wilt, about 3 minutes, then season with pepper. PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER Using your best china (you didn't do all this work to serve your family on paper plates!), place 1-1 1/2 cups of risotto on center of plate. Top with 3/4 cup sauteed chard then finish with your chicken breast. Enjoy!

Gently stuff each chicken breast with 1 1/2 tablespoons cheese, 1 tablespoon chopped tomatoes and 2 basil leaves. Rub 1 tablespoon of oil evenly across each chicken breast, then season with sea salt and pepper. Lightly coat your favorite baking dish with additional extra-virgin olive oil. Place stuffed breasts on dish and then into the oven. Bake for 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the size of the chicken breasts, until the chicken is done and the skin is lightly browned.

Chris ’ Dinner for Four PORTOBELLO MUSHROOM RISOTTO 4 1/2 cups chicken broth (we used a homemade turkey broth) 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 2 tablespoons shallots, minced 8 ounces baby portobello mushrooms (cleaned and sliced 1/4-inch thick) sea salt ground black pepper 2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves 1 1/2 cups Arborio rice 1/2 cup dry white wine, such as pinot grigio or sauvignon blanc 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 4 tablespoons Boursin Garlic & Fine Herb Cheese 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese, grated In a saucepan, bring broth to a simmer. Keep a ladle nearby. We are going to cook the mushrooms first but will need the stock hot for the next part. In a heavy, nonstick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add shallots and cook gently until just tender, 3 to 5 minutes. (Do not burn shallots.) Turn up the heat and add the mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until they begin to sweat, about 3 minutes, then season with sea salt, pepper and thyme. Reduce heat back to medium and continue to cook until baby portobellos are soft. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Add Arborio rice and stir until grains begin to slightly brown.
