LOW FAT/LOW CHOLESTEROL/LOW CALORIE

Prep: 10 min
Cook: 20 min

Hot stock, Arborio rice, and lots of stirring make up the traditional recipe for the rich and creamy concoction known as risotto. In this enlightened version, we've cut the fat and the labor for an equally mouthwatering meal. Gorgonzola adds a tangy richness to this dish, but you can use grated Par


   1 1/2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breast halves
   1 large onion, finely chopped (1 cup)
   1 can (14 1/2 ounce) ready-to-serve fat-free chicken broth
   1 1/2 cups uncooked rosamarina (orzo) pasta (9 ounces)
   3/4 teaspoon Italian seasoning
   1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper seasoning
   1/3 cup crumbled gorgonzola cheese


1. Remove fat from chicken. Cut chicken into 1/2-inch strips. Spray 10-inch nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat over medium-high heat. Cook chicken in skillet about
2 minutes, stirring frequently, until brown. Remove chicken from skillet; keep warm.
2. Spray skillet with cooking spray. Cook onion in skillet over medium-high heat about 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Stir in broth, pasta, Italian seasoning,
lemon pepper and chicken. Heat to boiling; reduce heat to low. Simmer uncovered about 11 minutes, stirring occasionally, until pasta is just tender; remove from heat.
Stir in cheese.
