Steps:
- To make the chicken, preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the fennel seeds and cook, stirring constantly until toasted, about 30 seconds. Let cool and grind in a spice grinder. Place in a small bowl and stir in the pepper, coriander and salt. Set aside 1 teaspoon of the mixture.
- Season the chicken on both sides with the remaining spice mixture. Melt the butter in a large ovenproof skillet, add the chicken and roast until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes per side.
- Meanwhile, to make the risotto, heat the olive oil in a medium-size saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and cook until lightly browned. Add the potatoes, thyme and wine. Lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring constantly, until the wine has been absorbed, about 7 minutes.
- Add the squash and 3/4 cup of the chicken broth and cook, stirring, until the broth is absorbed, adding up to 3/4 cup more as needed until the vegetables are tender. This will take about 30 minutes altogether. Stir in the spinach leaves and Parmesan. Remove from heat and season with salt.
- Remove the chicken from the pan and pour off the excess butter. Add the 1/2 cup chicken broth and place over medium heat. Cook until reduced to 2 tablespoons, about 4 minutes. Stir into the risotto.
- Dust the rim of a small platter with the reserved spice mixture and arrange the chicken on the platter. Place the risotto in a bowl and serve.
ROASTED CHICKEN WITH RISOTTO AND CARAMELIZED ONIONS
Moist roasted chicken gets the royal treatment with caramelized onions, balsamic vinegar and creamy risotto. You may choose to roast your own chicken or purchase a rotisserie chicken from a grocery store. A little grated cheese such as Parmesan or Pecorino Romano before serving is also a nice touch.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Stir in the onions and saute for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the onions are a dark golden brown. Remove from heat, stir in the balsamic vinegar and set aside.
- Heat the remaining oil in a separate large skillet over medium heat. Stir in the rice and mix well. Let heat for about 2 minutes, then pour in the wine. Reduce heat to medium low and start pouring in the broth about 1 cup at a time. Add more broth as each cup is absorbed. Continue in this manner until all the broth is absorbed and the rice is al dente, about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the reserved onion mixture and allow to heat through. Remove from heat and stir in the butter and chicken. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and garnish each serving with fresh thyme.

CHICKEN RISOTTO
The creaminess of risotto makes it an instant comfort food, but the addition of sautéed summer squash and gently cooked, pencil-thin asparagus, and chicken drive up the nutritional value too.

Steps:
- Combine broth and 3 cups water in a saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat.
- Meanwhile, season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat a large, straight-sided skillet over medium-high. Melt 1 tablespoon butter. Cook chicken, flipping once, until golden brown in places and just cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet. Add squash in a single layer, season with salt and pepper. Cook, flipping once, until browned in places and tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Melt 1 tablespoon butter in skillet. Add onions; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon butter to skillet and melt, then add rice and cook, stirring a few times, until translucent and nutty, about 1 minute.
- Add wine to skillet and boil, scrapping browned bits from bottom of pan, until mostly evaporated, about 1 minute. Ladle enough broth into skillet to just cover rice. Simmer until almost evaporated, stirring constantly, and adding more broth, one ladleful at a time, until rice is creamy but still very al dente, 18 to 20 minutes (you will still have some broth remaining in saucepan). Stir in asparagus and a ladleful of broth. Continue cooking and stirring constantly until rice is al dente and asparagus is crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Thinly slice chicken and return to skillet with accumulated juices, squash, and cheese, gently stirring to combine. Stir in more broth, a little at a time, until risotto is creamy and sauce evenly coats asparagus and chicken. Season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately topped with more cheese.
