  1. Heat 15 grams of butter and 1 tablespoon of Olive Oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté until soft, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute. Stir in the chicken pieces, cooking until lightly browned all over.
  3. Add the Arborio rice and stir to coat the grains.
  4. Gradually add the boiling water, a ladleful at a time, stirring frequently. Allow the liquid to be absorbed before adding more. Continue this process for about 15 minutes.

  6. Add the double cream and season to taste with salt and black pepper. Mix in the chopped parsley.
  7. Serve the risotto hot, topped with finely grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
