Add the chicken pieces and continue to cook until lightly golden.
Add the arborio rice, then start adding a few ladles of the stock at a time, when that has been absorbed, continue to add a little more and repeat this process, until all stock has been absorbed. Rice should still have a slight bite to it when risotto is ready.
