• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced. Finely chop garlic. Thinly slice leek and button mushrooms. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat.

• Return frying pan to a medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Cook leek and mushrooms, stirring, until tender, 4-6 minutes. • Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add arborio rice, the water and chicken-style stock powder. Stir to combine and bring to the boil.
• Transfer risotto mixture to baking dish of chicken. • Cover tightly with foil and bake until liquid is absorbed and rice is 'al dente', 24-28 minutes. • When risotto is done, remove from oven and stir through a splash of water, if needed.
