Method
Preparation
- Rinse the wild rice under cold water. In a pot, combine the wild rice with chicken broth and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce to a simmer, cover, and let it cook for 45-50 minutes, or until tender.
Cooking Chicken
- While the rice is cooking, heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then add to the pan. Sauté until golden and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.
Cooking Vegetables
- In the same skillet, add sliced mushrooms, diced onion, and minced garlic. Sauté for 5-8 minutes until mushrooms are soft and onions are translucent.
Combining Ingredients
- Return the chicken to the skillet and add the cooked wild rice and spinach. Stir until the spinach wilts and the dish is heated through. Adjust seasonings to taste.
Serving
- Serve hot from the skillet, garnished with fresh herbs.
Notes
Prep ingredients in advance for a quicker cooking time. You can substitute wild rice with quinoa or brown rice if desired. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
