It’s been a while since I have cooked a barley risotto, and a fine thing it is. \u00a0In truth I feel that it shouldn’t really qualify as risotto, but this sub-classification is a convenient shorthand for a vaguely risotto-esque thing. \u00a0I threw in some chicken thighs simply as they needed to be eaten, crisped up the skin then just left them in the pan and followed the rest of the recipe exactly. \u00a0The lemon here acts almost as the wine in a normal risotto, providing a backbone of sharpness without which it would be entirely uninspiring, and i wouldn’t have this without one of those two.<\/p>\n

I would be more careful to put the peas and feta in only a minute of two before serving next time. \u00a0Otherwise this is just great.<\/p>\n
