Add risotto.  Stir until combined and cook another 3 minutes.  Add one cup of chicken stock.  Continuously stir until all liquid is absorbed.  Add a second cup of chicken stock.  Continuously stir until all liquid is absorbed.  Repeat process two more times until all four cups of stock is absorbed.  (You will notice that the risotto has doubled in volume and become creamy.)
