2 C. fresh corn kernels (about 3 large ears)
Cooking spray
5 C. fat-free, low-sodium chicken broth
2 tsp. olive oil
1/2 C. minced shallots
2-1/4 C. short-grain rice
1/2 C. dry vermouth or vodka
4 C. chopped roasted chicken breast
1/3 C. fat-free half-and-half
1/4 C. thinly sliced green onions
1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper
1/2 C. (2 oz.) grated fresh Asiago cheese
3 slices 40%-less-fat bacon, cooked and crumbled

Preheat broiler. Place corn on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Broil 7 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from baking sheet, and set aside. Bring broth to a simmer in a medium saucepan (do not boil). Keep warm over low heat. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add shallots and garlic; sauté 2 minutes or until tender. Reduce heat to medium. Add rice; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add vermouth; cook 1 minute or until liquid is nearly absorbed, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low. Add broth, 1/2 C. at a time, stirring constantly until each portion of broth is absorbed before adding the next (about 25 to 30 minutes total). Gently stir in chicken and corn. Add half-and-half, green onions and black pepper. Cook until thoroughly heated (do not boil). Sprinkle each serving evenly with cheese and bacon. Serve immediately.
