This risotto was absolutely terrible! The chicken was overcooked and the risotto was mushy. I threw the whole thing in the trash.

I really didn't like this risotto. The chicken was tough and the risotto was bland. I would not recommend this recipe.

This risotto was just okay. The chicken was a bit dry and the risotto was not very creamy. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
