2 Tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup frozen peas
1 Litre reduced salt chicken stock
6 chicken thigh fillets, skin off , cut into bite sized pieces
1/2 brown onion, finely chopped

Directions
- Put oil in non-stick fry pan on medium heat. Add onion and garlic and cook till onion is softened, about 3-4 minutes.

Once stock is all absorbed, the rice should look like a porridge consistency. - Add the chicken, peas and white wine to the rice and allow to simmer for about 4-5 minutes till the chicken is cooked. Time could vary depending on the size of the chicken pieces.
- Add the parmesan and cream just before serving. Garnish with fresh parsley.
