Chicken

Asparagus

Balsamic Glaze

Method

Chicken

  1. 1

    Prepare the Chicken

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). In a bowl, mix the dried thyme, dried rosemary, garlic powder, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken breast and wing.

  2. 2

    Roast the Chicken

    Place the seasoned chicken on a baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove from the oven and let it rest.

Risotto

  1. 3

    Sauté the Onion

    In a large saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 4

    Cook the Risotto

    Add the Arborio rice to the saucepan and stir for 2 minutes until the rice is slightly toasted. Gradually add the chicken broth, one ladle at a time, stirring continuously until the liquid is absorbed before adding more. This should take about 20 minutes.

  3. 5

    Finish the Risotto

    Once the rice is creamy and al dente, stir in the fresh spinach, grated Parmesan cheese, and truffle oil. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Asparagus

  1. 6

    Prepare the Asparagus

    While the chicken and risotto are cooking, trim the tough ends off the asparagus spears. Toss them in a bowl with olive oil, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 7

    Roast the Asparagus

    Place the asparagus on a baking sheet and roast in the oven (at the same time as the chicken) for about 15-20 minutes, until tender and slightly crispy.

Balsamic Glaze

  1. 8

    Prepare the Balsamic Glaze

    In a small saucepan, combine the balsamic vinegar and honey. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
