I made this with chicken from a rotisserie chicken (regular flavor) and it was very good. I used reduced fat & sodium chicken broth and didn't think it needed more salt...maybe just a touch. It good and a nice light dinner.

So yummy, I used a rotisserie chicken, too. The only problem I had was it too a lot longer to cook the rice. (I could only find short grain brown rice, this may be the problem)

This was a good start. It was kind of bland and I'm not sure I like the lemon flavor. I ended up adding a lot of salt. Consider adding a lot of flavor to your chicken when cooked and that will definitely influence how this turns out.

Liked this recipe since it was the easiest way I've ever made risotto. Omitted the lemon but may add some next time. Added a salad and had a good meal. Definitely worth a try.
