Preparation steps

1.
Bring broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat so that broth stays at a constant gentle simmer.
2.
In a large, deep skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until browned and crisp. Transfer bacon strips with a slotted spoon to a paper towel; set aside. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon bacon drippings. Add leeks to skillet; cook 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add garlic and rice; cook 1 minute, stirring frequently.
3.
Using a large ladle, transfer about 1 cup of the simmering broth to the rice mixture. Cook until most of the liquid is absorbed, stirring frequently. Continue adding broth 1 ladle at a time, until rice is slightly firm to the bite, 20 to 25 minutes, stirring frequently and keeping the rice mixture at a constant simmer.
4.
Stir in reserved bacon and chicken; heat through. Remove from heat; stir in cheese. Season with salt and pepper. Transfer to four shallow bowls and serve immediately.
