Herb risotto is a classic Italian dish known for its creamy texture and rich flavors.

Whether you're an experienced cook or a beginner, this recipe is easy to follow and guaranteed to impress your guests or family.
- Use warm chicken gravy. Keeping the chicken gravy warm while adding it to the rice ensures that the risotto cooks evenly and maintains the proper texture.
- Stir constantly. Frequent stirring helps release the starch from the rice, which gives risotto its creamy consistency.
- Don’t rush the process. Cooking risotto requires patience. Gradually adding the chicken gravy and allowing the rice to absorb it fully will result in the best texture and flavor.
- Finish with fresh herbs. Adding fresh parsley towards the end of cooking preserves its vibrant color and fresh flavor, giving the risotto a beautiful and aromatic finish.
- Customize your seasoning. Taste the risotto towards the end of cooking and adjust the salt and pepper according to your preferences.
This simple herb risotto is a delightful dish that offers a perfect blend of flavors and textures. It's creamy, fragrant, and utterly satisfying. Whether you enjoy it on its own or as an accompaniment to a main course, this risotto is sure to become a favorite in your culinary repertoire. Bon appétit!
