Chicken Rice

Brown Rice Chicken Risotto

I had bought some brown rice a couple of months back ,thinking about good health ,more fibre and less calories.But my family discarded its taste.It takes long time to cook and doesn’t taste as good as normal polished rice which we generally use daily.So I thought to make some innovative recipe which appeals to them.
Risotto is an Italian rice dish cooked in a veg or meat broth to a creamy consistency. It is one of the most common ways of cooking rice in Italy.Risotto is generally cooked with a round medium- or short- grain white rice which have the ability to absorb liquids so that they are stickier than the long grain varieties. The principal varieties used in Italy are Arborio, Baldo etc.
But in this recipe I am going to use any  Brown Rice variety available in the market
