Step 1

In a shallow dish, combine the chicken with the garlic, oregano, paprika, onion powder, olive oil, salt and pepper. Use clean hands to ensure the chicken is evenly coated in the marinade.

Step 2

Heat a large, deep, heavy-based frying pan over medium–high heat and cook the chicken for 4–5 minutes on each side or until just cooked through.

Step 3

Add the butter and scatter the lemon slices around the chicken in the last 2 minutes of cooking to caramelise (the juices will release in the pan and create a beautiful flavour). Set the chicken and caramelised lemon slices aside on a plate.

Step 4

To the same pan, add the risoni, chicken stock, cream, lemon juice and mustard. Stir and bring to a simmer.

Step 5

Once simmering, reduce the heat to medium–low so that it is bubbling gently. Cook for 10–12 minutes, uncovered, stirring regularly.

Step 6

Turn the heat off and remove the pan from the heat. Stir the spinach leaves and parmesan through the risoni. Season with the pepper and salt to taste. Cover and allow to sit for 2–3 minutes (see note 2 below for tips).

Step 7

Serve the risoni topped with the cooked chicken (slice first if desired). Top with the caramelised lemon slices before serving and garnish with lemon balm or parsley (if using).
