I want to make the Love and Lemons risotto recipe this week, but need to come up with a good source of protein to accompany it that feels harmonious, balanced, and filling. Typically, I would just heat up a Beyond breaded chicken patty or a black bean burger, but this feels fancy, and like it needs something a little extra with some bite to it. As the risotto is a fairly soft consistency, I'd like something with the texture similar to a piece of Beyond or Impossible chicken to kind of balance it out. I'm thinking of serving it with roasted asparagus.
Any recommendations?
If it helps, I love new ideas for serving eggs as a main dish, if you've got those. I've got a good, reliable source of backyard chicken eggs so if you've got a great egg main-dish idea, I'd love to hear it!
Thank you!!!

Grilled halloumi is a great protein to pair with risotto.
