This recipe combines the earthiness of mushrooms with the fresh taste of spinach, all brought together in a rich and comforting risotto.

- Use Arborio rice for the best texture and creaminess in your risotto.
- Make sure to stir the risotto constantly to release the starch from the rice, which gives the dish its signature creaminess.
- Warm the chicken gravy before adding it to the rice to maintain an even cooking temperature.
- Sauté the mushrooms separately to enhance their flavor before adding them to the risotto.
- Add the spinach towards the end of cooking to retain its vibrant color and freshness.
- Gradually add the chicken gravy one cup at a time, allowing the rice to absorb it fully before adding more.
- Finish the risotto off the heat with butter and Parmesan cheese to add extra richness and a silky texture.
