CHICKEN MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Melt butter over medium heat; sauté onion, carrot, celery, and garlic in butter with curry powder until vegetables are tender (3-5 minutes).
• Add the water, chicken, pepper, and poultry seasoning; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to low, and simmer, covered, until chicken is tender (40 minutes).
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Remove the chicken and vegetables to a lightly greased 2-quart casserole or baking pan, and cook rice according to package directions in the broth remaining in the skillet (subbing broth for the water called for in the package directions; you'll need to add a cup or so of broth or water to get to the amount listed) (25 minutes).
• In another skillet, melt butter, and sauté mushrooms and artichokes until tender (10 minutes).
• Combine rice, mushroom/artichoke mixture, sour cream, soup, and salt with chicken/veg mixture in casserole.
• Bake, covered, for 20-25 minutes.
