Savory Beet Risotto With Crispy Chicken

Believe it or not, I woke up with 57-degree weather here in Miami. It is chilly, and I love it! Finally, I am wearing a cozy sweater and cute boots.

This comforting dinner is perfect for the chilly weather. Imagine a creamy savory beet risotto topped with goat cheese served with fire-grilled crispy chicken thighs and microgreens.

The perfect texture contrast between crispy and smooth. And they’re super easy to make. You’ll see 😉

I love creating recipes that highlight seasonal ingredients in different and original ways. This risotto brings out the sweetness of the beets with the delicate taste of the goat cheese.

Now that Halloween is here I wanted to accompany this yummy dark cut of chicken with a side dish that will impress your friends and family.

Here’s a tip: If you buy your beets already roasted and peeled, this meal will be ready in 30 minutes or less. So keep that in mind next time you go shopping.

I served this dish to my husband for lunch today and he had no idea that the chicken was previously frozen. He asked me if I finally learned how to turn on the grill by myself.

Let’s just keep that secret between us. He’ll never know 😉
