Perfect Creamy Risotto for Weekday Supper

This recipe is being shared for PERDUE® Signature Chicken Stock from Perdue in conjunction with a sponsored social media campaign through Sunday Supper LLC. All opinions are my own.

When asked to come up with a recipe using Perdue Signature Chicken Stock for Weekday Supper, I knew exactly which dish I wanted to try.

In my recipe box, I have the perfect creamy risotto that would make your Italian grandmother throw her spoon to the side and smile ear to ear.

No more hours of slow cooking and stirring. Nope. This risotto is ready in 30 minutes- sometimes 45, depending on the brand of rice you use- and comes out so creamy and delicious.

What could be the secret to this rice dish mystery?

Your oven does all the cooking!

Purdue has come up with a great new product that I can use in a lot of recipes; soups, mashed potatoes and of course in this creamy risotto!

Why will it be so good?  Here are some reasons why:

1. It contains no preservatives or artificial flavors and because of this, it’s refrigerated and not stocked on the store shelves- meaning it will be fresh.
2. I like that it has convenient packaging with a pour spout- no more struggling with the little foil pull tab that always rips.
3. It has a side window showing how much stock is left! Brilliant!
