betty's chicken & tomato risotto

I found this recipe not long after I was first married, almost 20 years ago. This uses chicken pieces, a packet of dry tomato soup mix and chicken stock. Creating a rich and flavourful risotto, hearty enough to fill up my DH and children. Serve with a tossed salad for a balanced meal.
