BAKED MUSHROOM RICE



Baked Mushroom Rice image

Recipe video above. The oven baked version of the wildly popular Mushroom Rice! The idea behind this recipe is that the mushrooms act as a "lid" over the rice as it bakes, and the mushroom juices drip into the rice - best broth ever! The rice is FLUFFY, garlicky and buttery, and the mushrooms are golden brown and juicy inside.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

650g (1.3 lb) mushrooms (, quartered (Note 1))
50g (3.5 tbsp) butter (, melted (hot, not cooled))
2 - 3 garlic cloves (, minced (I use 3 - nice and garlicky!))
Salt and pepper
1.5 tbsp olive oil
1 1/2 cups long grain rice (, uncooked)
1 1/2 cups (375 ml) chicken or vegetable broth (, low sodium)
1 1/4 cups (315 ml) water
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp garlic powder
3 shallots / green onions / scallions (, finely sliced)
1 - 2 tbsp butter (, optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180C/350F.
  • Place mushrooms in a large bowl. Pour over hot melted butter, add garlic, salt and pepper. Toss well.
  • Place all the Rice ingredients in a baking pan - 22 x 33 cm / 9 x 13". Mine is 30 x 24 cm / 12 x 9.5" - don't need to be exact here, but don't stray too much from pan size.
  • Mix and shake the pan to spread the rice out evenly.
  • Spread the mushrooms over the rice - they will be partially submerged but should pretty much cover the whole surface area (to be the "lid" while the rice cooks).
  • Drizzle over olive oil.
  • Bake for 35 - 40 minutes or until mushroom is golden. Remove from oven and rest for 5 minutes.
  • Finishes: Add extra butter (if using) and scallions. Toss through rice. Serve!

BAKED RICE WITH CHICKEN AND MUSHROOMS



Baked Rice With Chicken and Mushrooms image

This warming, savory, hearty baked rice casserole was originally meant to be an Indian-style biriyani, but my larder was stocked with Gallic ingredients: mushrooms, thyme, garlic, parsley. I switched gears, heading in a French direction. It's a great dish for feeding a crowd and also reheats beautifully, so it's worth making the entire batch. Serve with a crisp green salad, juicy wilted spinach or mustard greens, or all-season frozen peas.

Categories     dinner, lunch, grains and rice, main course

Time 1h20m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut into 2-inch chunks
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 large onion, diced (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 large sprig thyme, plus 1 teaspoon freshly chopped leaves
1 bay leaf
1 cup white wine
2 cups basmati rice, soaked for 20 minutes, rinsed and drained
8 ounces king trumpet mushrooms, or a mixture of mushrooms, sliced 1/4-inch thick
4 cups hot chicken broth
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 cup frozen peas, cooked for 2 minutes in salted water (optional)
2 small garlic cloves, smashed to a paste with a little salt
3 tablespoons roughly chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Put chicken pieces on a baking sheet and season generously with salt and pepper. Set aside. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Pour olive oil into a 4-quart enamelware Dutch oven or similar heavy pot and set over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook, stirring, until nicely browned, 8 to 10 minutes, then season with salt. Add chicken, thyme sprig and bay leaf, and continue to cook, stirring, for 2 minutes more.
  • Add wine and simmer briskly until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
  • Add rice and a large handful of mushrooms and stir to combine. (Reserve most of the mushrooms for garnish.) Add broth and bring to a simmer. Check broth for seasoning and adjust.
  • Cover pot and cook for 10 minutes over medium heat. Transfer pot to oven and bake for 20 minutes. Finally, remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes off heat.
  • While rice is baking, sauté remaining mushrooms: Melt butter in a large skillet over high heat. Add mushrooms, season with salt and pepper and cook, rapidly stirring, until they have softened and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add peas, if using, and heat through. Turn off heat, then add reserved chopped thyme, the garlic and the parsley. Toss to coat well.
