Steps
Sequence Step
1Sprinkle cumin all over chicken. Heat oil in large heavy-based saucepan over moderate heat. Cook chicken for 4 minutes each side or until cooked. Transfer to a heatproof dish. Cover with foil; rest for 5 minutes and then shred coarsely.
2Add pumpkin to pan; cook and stir for 5 minutes or until tender. Transfer to a large heatproof bowl. Meanwhile, bring stock to the boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat; hold at a simmer.
3Melt butter in pan until foaming. Cook and stir onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes or until onion softens. Add rice; cook and stir for 2 minutes. Reduce heat. Add a ladleful of hot stock to rice mixture; stir constantly until liquid is absorbed. Continue adding stock, 1 ladleful at a time, stirring constantly until liquid is absorbed before adding more (this will take about 25 minutes or until rice is tender but firm to the bite).
4Add chicken, pumpkin and half the parmesan to risotto; stir to combine. Reserve a third of the risotto for second meal. Stir rocket into remaining risotto. Spoon into shallow serving bowls. Sprinkle with remaining parmesan. Serve at once
