Wild Rice with Snow Peas

  Wild Rice with Snow Peas and Mushrooms is an excellent rice side dish recipe with a wonderful flavor combination.

 

Ingredients needed:

wild rice

green onions

butter

chicken broth

snow peas

water chestnuts

fresh mushrooms

vegetable or canola oil

salt and pepper

 

Rinse the wild rice!

Chop your green onions. Chop the white part of the green onion finely. And then chop the green part into 1-inch lengths.

Melt butter in a saucepan. Add the white onion and sauté. Add the rice, salt, and chicken broth. Cover the saucepan, and simmer to cook the rice. It should take about 35 minutes to become tender. Add additional broth as it cooks, if needed.

 

Green onion stems should be cut into 1-inch lengths. The white part of the green onions should be finely chopped.

Melt the butter in a large saucepan. Sauté the white onion in the oil. Combine the rice, salt, and chicken broth in a mixing bowl. Bring to a boil, stir, and then turn off the heat. Cook, covered, over low heat until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed (about 35 minutes). As the rice cooks, add more broth as needed.

Heat the oil in a separate skillet. Sauté the mushrooms for a few minutes. Sauté the green onion stems, snow peas, and water chestnuts briefly.

Combine the cooked rice with the sautéed vegetables. Add salt and pepper, as desired to taste.
