- 1 tbsp butter- 1 tbsp garlic infused olive oil - 2 tsp basil paste** - 1tsp mixed italian herbs- Asafoetida to taste (normal onion and garlic can be used - see tips) - 1.5 cups arborio rice- 3 cup chicken stock (I used 2 cup real stock and 1 cup water)- 8-10 cherry tomatoes- Approx 2 cup roasted chicken- 1.5 cup grated parmesan cheese (1 cup will do, I like it cheesy)- Cracked pepper
Directions
1. Put butter, oil, italian herbs, a shake of asafoetida*, the basil paste** into your rice cooker and cook until melted stirring occasionally.

2. Stir rice into the mixture until coated then add stock and set your rice cooker to cook.
