Reddit reviews Gluten-Free Bible

This is the first risotto I have ever made and I think I did a pretty good job. The recipe is from the "Gluten-Free Bible" however I didn't use any GF ingredients as this was a trial run for the SO while she is out of town.

Here is the recipe since I couldn't find it online. I made a few changes based on preferences and ingredient availability:

Ingredients

• 6 cups of GF chicken broth
  
  
• 2 T olive oil
  
  
• 2 cups sliced mushrooms (left these out)
  
  
• 1/2 cup chopped onion
  
  
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
  
  
• 1.5 cups arborio rice
  
  
• 1 lb. cooked chicken tenders, cut in 1/5 in. pieces (left mine whole)
  
  
• 2 cups cooked broccoli florets
  
  
• 4 plum tomatoes, seeded and chopped (used Roma because that's all I could find)
  
  
• 1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley or 1 TB dried parsley flakes
  
  
• 3-4 T finely chopped fresh basil (used African blue) or 1 TB dried basil
  
  
• 1 t cayenne (not included in original recipe)
  
  
• 1/2 t salt
  
  
• 1/2 t black pepper
  
  
• 2 T grated Paremesan or Romano cheese
  
  Instructions
  
  
• Bring broth to a boil in medium saucepan; reduce heat to a simmer.
  
  
• Heat oil in large nonstick saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms, onion and garlic; cook and stir 5 minutes or until tender.
  
  
• Add rice to mushroom mixture; cook and stir 1-2 minutes. Add broth, 1/2 cup at a time, stirring frequently until broth is absorbed before adding next 1/2 cup. Continue adding broth and stirring until rice is tender and mixture is creamy, about 20-25 minutes.
  
  
• Add chicken, broccoli, tomatoes, parsley, basil, cayenne, salt and pepper; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Sprinkle with cheese.
