Roasted Salmon And Shiitake Mushrooms On Wild Rice Pilaf Recipes

WILD RICE WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large saucepot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the rice and toast while stirring until it begins to smell nutty, about 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook on low until the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
• While the rice is cooking, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter along with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the button mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms and thyme and cook, stirring often until they begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• When the rice is cooked, fluff with a fork and gently fold in the mushrooms. Add to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the parsley before serving.

WILD RICE WITH SHIITAKE MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• * Place mushrooms in a bowl, cover with warm water and allow to soak 30 to 40 minutes, until softened. Drain mushrooms, reserving the liquid and cut any tough stems away from the caps. Slice the mushrooms into slivers about one-fourth-inch wide.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a heavy saucepan melt the butter or add the oil. Add the shallots and saute until tender. Add the carrots and sliced mushrooms and toss to coat with butter or oil. Add the rice. Stir briefly, then add the stock and reserved mushroom-soaking liquid. Season with salt and pepper.
• Bring to a simmer, cover and place in the oven to bake 1 hour and 15 minutes, until the grains of rice have started to split and are tender. All the liquid should be absorbed, but if not cook a few minutes longer, then remove pan from heat and set aside, covered, to rest for 15 minutes. Fluff rice with a fork, check seasonings and serve.

WILD RICE AND MUSHROOM PILAF

Steps:

• Combine wild rice, brown rice, and beef broth in a 3-quart sauce pan. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to Low. Cover and simmer 50-55 minutes until rice is tender.
• Meanwhile, slice mushrooms. Chop shallot. Chop (or crush) garlic.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over Medium heat. Saute shallots 3 minutes. Stir in garlic; add mushrooms, salt and pepper. Saute 4 minutes or until mushrooms are dark and tender.
• When rice is finished cooking, toss mushroom mixture with rice and serve while hot.
• Special note: The recipe originally says to drain the rice. I've never had any extra liquid to drain, but I use a different rice as well. To make the recipe easier for me I bought a rice mixture at my store called "Royal Blend". I highly recommend it since it contains Texmati white, brown, wild, and red rice. This might be the reason no draining is necessary. If you are able to find this rice and buy it, use 1 1/2 cups of it instead of the 3/4 cup of both rice.
