For an even richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth.
If you don't have dry white wine, you can substitute with an equal amount of chicken broth.
For a vegetarian option, omit the chicken and use vegetable broth.
Grated Parmesan cheese can also be added as a garnish for extra flavor.
To avoid sticking, stir the risotto frequently, especially as it thickens.
