Quick question about chicken risotto, from someone who doesn't eat chicken

I roasted a chicken on Sunday, and made stock with the bones. So tonight I am making risotto.

I am using red pepper and broccoli, but can't decide between leek or red onion. Which would you prefer?

Leeks go really well with chicken and I do love leeks in a creamy risotto, but I’ve never paired leeks with red peppers and can’t imagine them together so I’d go for the red onion.

Thank you, I really want to use the pepper, the leeks are frozen so can be saved for another day.

I would have also gone with the chicken/leek combo for a risotto. How about a pilaf such as this if you want to use peppers?

I wouldn’t put red pepper in a risotto
Chicken and leek will be much nicer
