If you had roasted a chicken on Sunday, would you use leftovers on Wednesday in a risotto?

Fresh chicken, bought and cooked on Sunday.

Bear in mind that this is a £9 organic chicken we are talking about here

Alas I binned the bones on Sunday. DH can't stand them in the fridge whilst I procrastinate about using them.

Ooh I want some too - anyone got a recipe ?

I don't really have a recipe. Just chuck in whatever veg there is to hand and the chicken towards the end.

i gently fried an onion & a red pepper in butter for about 10 mins. added arborio rice, roast chicken, & then stirred stock in for about 20 mins. oh, & a rind of parmesan if you have any. bit more butter at the end. serve with parmesan.
