Chicken Asparagus Risotto Recipe is the first spring dish full of flavor and nutritional value. This recipe is simple to prepare.
Chicken fillet is low-calorie meat that cooks quickly. Just like in mushroom risotto, or chicken and zucchini risotto, chicken with asparagus combine best.
Ingredients
- 350 g of Arborio rice
- 1 bunch of asparagus
- 100 g of chicken fillet
- 1/2 glass of white wine
- 1 green onion
- salt, pepper, parsley
- 2 tbsp of ground Parmegiano cheese
- 1 tbsp of fresh butter
- 1,5 liter of vegetable stock
For the risotto broth
- 1 onion
- 1 carrot
- fresh parsley
- salt
- Parts of the ends of the asparagus
Directions
- We will clean the fresh asparagus. After that, we split the soft part of the asparagus from the strong one. For this, incline the asparagus lightly, and the place it will break itself is the right place.
- Continue to prepare the vegetable stock. We will use the ends parts of the asparagus together with the carrot, onion, celery, salt, and parsley to make it.
- Put all in a casserole with salty water and boil them. It will be ready after simmering for about 20 minutes.
- We start by cooking the risotto. In a pan, sauté the minced onion and the chicken fillet cut into pieces.
- Continue cooking, adding after a few minutes the asparagus cut into small pieces.
- We leave the asparagus peaks as they are.
- Stir them all for a few minutes and add the cleaned and rinsed rice. We season it with salt and black pepper.
- Mix it well for two minutes and quench it with white wine. Raise the cooking temperature until the alcohol evaporates and add the hot liquid piece by piece, covering the rice.
- Once the rice absorbs the first liquid, add the hot liquid again. We continue like this until the risotto cooks.
- Turn off the heat. We remove the risotto from the heat still juicy. Add the fresh butter and ground cheese, and mix it well. It will result in a soft and creamy risotto.
- Serve it immediately warm with fresh parsley on top.
Bon Appetit!

I tend to enjoy asparagus dishes throughout the spring and summer. That’s why this Chicken Asparagus Risotto Recipe is so good for me! With a few simple ingredients, it can be easy to throw together an elegant dish! Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe! I tend to cook it differently, so I’ll try your way. 🙂 Cheers!
This chicken and asparagus risotto looks very yummy and easy to prepare. I can see from your instructions that I am often too impatient when I cook risotto, and add all the liquid at the same time. And then when it doesn’t absorb it quickly enough, I stir it too much and then it becomes a sticky mess.
I love the combination of chicken and asparagus, and will try it with the wild asparagus that we have growing on our property, and using your directions..
