We cook this dish when we are very hungry as it is filling. It has one of my many favourite ingredients which is Lemon! I use chicken stock from a carton. The recipe comes from a book called 'Modern Classics' Book 1 by Donna Hay

Great risotto! It's no more difficult than most other risottos, but the hint of lemon and parmesan makes it taste more special. Thanx for a new risotto recipe to enjoy!

    The recipe turned out nicely, but I don't think I care for Risotto- its too much work and not that different from regular rice. Thanks for sharing. I tried it for ZWT 4 Flying Duchess'

    Marvelous risotto and a perfect accompanyment to Chicken With Shitakes and Artichokes. I added lemon juice instead of zest and skipped the pepper. It's a classic risotto and just couldn't be any better with it creamy lemony goodness.
