Brown and Wild Rice Pilaf image

I created this a few years ago at Thanksgiving as substitute for stuffing for the vegetarians. The whole family has adopted it, as we do not cook a whole turkey anymore, just a turkey breast. I suppose it probably could be used to stuff a turkey. It is a bit of trouble to cook the two rices and the vegetable mixture in separate pans, but I find that the taste and texture turns out much better than when I've tried to cook them together.

Yield 1 large dish

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup wild rice
2 cups brown rice (brown jasmine rice is great)
4 1/2 cups vegetable broth or 4 1/2 cups chicken broth
3 -5 leaves fresh sage, finely chopped
1/3-1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Boil wild rice in two cups water about 50 minutes until tender.
  • Meanwhile, place brown rice and 4 cups broth in another pot and bring to a boil, then reduce to low heat, cover, and cook for 50 minutes or until done.
  • Pour the olive oil into a sauté pan.
  • When it is hot, add the onion, celery, and mushrooms, and cook for about 5 minutes.

This pilaf is a great way to use up leftover chicken or beef. I like to add some shredded chicken or beef to the pilaf and it makes a great one-pan meal.
