About
I quickly want to share with you the risotto recipe with chicken and veggies.The truth is that I really like Chinese cuisine,especially fried rice and sweet and sour chicken.But I don’t eat these often because they are full of excess fat and salt.Which is really bad if you want to eat healthy.So I consume these when I have something like cheat day.Better choice with rice is this risotto which I will show you today.It is high in lean protein from the chicken.Packed with big amount of fiber from the green peas and complex carbohydrates from the rice.
