I found a wild rice blend in the bulk section of our grocery store and decided to try it. It made a very nice pilaf that goes well with almost anything. This serves 8-10 but can easily be halved.
- 2 cups wild rice blend
- 4 cups of low sodium chicken broth
- 2 shallots, minced (or 1/2 cup chopped onion)
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 lb of brown mushrooms sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter, or olive oil
- 1/4 cup of freshly chopped parsley, optional
- 1/2 teaspoon of ground sage
- Saute minced shallots, garlic and mushrooms in butter until softened.
- Add the sage and rice. Stir the rice well to coat it in the butter.
- Add the broth bring to a boil and simmer for 20 minutes.
- Take off the heat and let stand for 5 minutes, stir the rice adding fresh parsley.
YUM! Thanks for another fabulous recipe. My family will LoVe this!

ReplyDeleteLooks great! Do I simmer with a lid on or off?
ReplyDeleteI simmered it with the lid on.
