Number Of Ingredients 10

1 tablespoon butter
3 oz diced pancetta
1 carton (32 oz) Progresso™ vegetable broth
1 cup diced yellow onion
1 cup uncooked Arborio rice
1/2 cup dry white wine
4 cups baby arugula
1 cup chopped cooked chicken
2 1/2 oz Tallegio cheese, cubed (1/2 cup)
1 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel

Steps:

  • In 4-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add pancetta, and cook until crisp. Transfer to plate using slotted spoon; set aside.
  • Meanwhile, in 1-quart microwavable glass measuring cup, microwave broth uncovered on High 3 to 4 minutes or until simmering.
  • Cook onion in saucepan with butter 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until translucent. Stir in uncooked rice. Cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes or until rice smells toasted. Add wine; cook 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until almost all liquid is absorbed.
  • Increase heat to medium-high; stir in hot broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently and waiting 2 to 3 minutes between additions, until all liquid is absorbed, 18 to 24 minutes.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in arugula, chicken, cheese and lemon peel. Continue stirring until cheese melts and mixture is heated through. Divide among 4 bowls; top with reserved pancetta.
