Italian Herb Chicken

Tonight’s Northern Italian-inspired meal is the definition of comfort food. Arborio rice is sautéed with a melange of fresh vegetables, deglazed with white wine, then simmered low and slow until creamy and al dente. A whole chicken breast, coated in Italian herbs, is fire-grilled until juicy and served with the tender risotto. To round out all those rich flavors, a generous side of simply-roasted green beans.

“This mac ’n’ cheese features classic comfort with a sweet and smoky seasonal spin. Al dente elbow macaroni is draped in a creamy smoked gouda and white cheddar sauce, then topped with diced herb-roasted butternut squash and a generous sprinkle of sharp cheddar cheese. “
