WILD RICE, SAUTEED APPLES & ONION WITH FRESH SAGE
Hearty Fall flavors in this rice dish, the fresh sage is perfect with the sauteed apples and rice. I also love to cook the rice in chicken broth for extra flavor. I serve this with my chicken stuffed with fontina, cranberry and walnuts recipe , it is the perfect compliment. Recipe #389670. I wouldn't say this is a quick weekday recipe, but a Sunday dinner or entertaining with a few friends. It is very elegant with tons of flavor and cost friendly. But this rice is just as good with a simple roasted chicken any day.

Steps:
- Rice -- Cook the rice according to directions. I like to cook in chicken broth for extra flavor, but by all means, water will work just fine.
- Note: If entertaining, I replace 1/2 cup of the chicken broth with white wine to even give the dish more flavor, but for every day I don't. Also if you have kids you may or may not want to. That is up to you. The wine adds a great flavor to the dish however.
- Apples and Onions -- as the rice cooks which will take about 20-30 minutes heat up a small skillet on medium heat and melt the butter. Saute the onions and apples on medium for 5 minutes until soft but not over cooked. Add in the apple jelly, sage, salt and pepper.
- Mix -- When the rice is done, combine the rice with the apple mixture and it is ready to enjoy. If you want, garnish with a teaspoon of butter to mix in and even make the dish richer in flavor.

SAUTEED APPLES AND ONIONS
This was once a pioneer favorite. Yes, it sounds weird, but it's delicious. You'll want to have something to go with this that has some protein, like a garden burger or a brown rice packet, both of which you can microwave. Apples and onions only takes about 10 minutes, a few dollars and it's delicious as a topping for rice or even by itself for a light snack.

Steps:
- Trim the chops of excess fat. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper on both sides. Heat a 14-inch cast-iron skillet (if you have a smaller one, you'll need to work in batches) over high heat, and then swirl in the olive oil. Lay in the pork chops and don't move them for a few minutes, to assure a good golden sear forms. Turn and brown well on the second side for a total of about 10 minutes. Transfer the chops to a warm plate.
- Swirl the butter into the pan. Add the onion and apples. Saute until the onion slices are lightly caramelized and the apples have begun to soften, about 8 minutes. Stir in the beer or other liquid. Return chops to the pan.
- Cook until the pork is tender, about 15 more minutes (depending on the size of the chops), turning halfway through and covering the chops with the apple mixture. If the apple mixture needs a little thickening, transfer the chops to the warm plate again and simmer the mixture on high for a few minutes to reduce. Serve the chops over rice or mashed potatoes with a large spoonful of the apple-onion mixture over the top.

Tips:
- Use a variety of apples. Different apples offer different flavors and textures, so using a mix will create a more complex and interesting dish.
- Choose firm apples. Soft apples will break down too much during cooking and become mushy.
- Peel and core the apples before cooking. This will help to prevent the skins from becoming tough and the cores from adding bitterness to the dish.
- Slice the apples thinly. This will help them to cook evenly.
- Sauté the onions and apples together before adding the rice. This will help to develop their flavor and create a more caramelized flavor in the dish.
- Use a good quality stock. The stock will add a lot of flavor to the dish, so it's important to use a good one. If you don't have any homemade stock on hand, you can use a low-sodium store-bought stock.
- Cook the rice according to the package directions. This will ensure that the rice is cooked properly and doesn't become mushy.
- Fluff the rice with a fork before serving. This will help to separate the grains of rice and make them light and fluffy.
