"Elegant" Weeknight Chicken

Why in the world they chose to call this elegant, I have no clue? I didn't even take a photo, it looked not so pretty, but d*mn it was SO easy to cook.

Then Will says, "Can we have risotto with it?" really...if anyone knows of canned/boxed risotto that would be really cool to share that with me!
