Sweet Chilli Chicken Risotto
When I told my family we were having a sweet chilli risotto they looked at me like I had gone crazy. I had the last laugh because not only did they eat it and love it, this is now our go to risotto recipe.

2 tablespoon vegetable stock paste

80g fresh Parmesan cubed (plus extra for serving)
2 1/2 tbs sweet chilli sauce (I use a homemade sauce but store bought is fine)
300g fresh spinach leaves

Add Parmesan cheese in bowl and chop 7 sec/speed 9.
Place garlic and onion in mixing bowl and chop 3 sec/sp 5.
Scrap down sides, add oil and chicken, and sauté 4min/100 deg/reverse/speed soft.
