Risoni looks like rice but is actually a small Italian pasta that’s great for adding bulk to soups and stews. Boiled risoni can also be used cold in salads.

Ingredients

Chicken stock

2 cup(s), (500ml)

Skinless chicken breast

135 g, thinly sliced

Carrot(s)

1 small, finely chopped

Celery

1 stick(s), finely chopped

Tomato(es)

2 medium, chopped

Green string beans

100 g, trimmed, chopped

Dry pasta

55 g, risoni, (1/4 cup)

Canned cannellini beans, rinsed, drained

85 g, (1/2 cup)

Fresh flat-leaf parsley

2 tbs, chopped

Multigrain bread roll

2 small, (30g each)

Instructions

  1. 1. Place stock in a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. Add chicken, carrot and celery and reduce heat to medium. Cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until vegetables soften.
  2. 2. Add tomato, green beans and risoni. Simmer, uncovered, for 7–8 minutes or until risoni is tender. Add cannellini beans and stir until heated through.
  3. 3. Serve soup sprinkled with parsley, along with the bread rolls.
