Wild Rice And Shiitake Mushroom Pilaf


Serve this full-flavored side dish with pork or beef.

Serves 4
2 ounces Olive oil
1 medium Onion, diced
1/2 cup Celery, diced
2 medium Carrots, peeled and diced
1/2 cup Pecan pieces
1/2 cup Wild rice
1/2 cup Brown rice
1 cup Shiitake mushrooms, diced
3/4 cup Beef broth
3/4 cup Chicken broth
 

Heat the oil in a large skillet (that has a lid and can go
into the oven). Add the onion, celery, and carrots. Cook
until just soft (about four or five minutes). Add the
mushrooms, pecans, and rice. Cook for an additional five
minutes, stirring frequently. Add the broth, stir well,
cover, and place in a 350 degree oven for 50-60 minutes (or
until the rice is tender).
