DELIGHTFUL CHICKEN, MUSHROOM, AND WILD RICE CASSEROLE
This casserole is heavenly! It has the most wonderful flavor! This one is best if you cook the chicken, rather than buy pre-cooked chicken or use leftovers, because you cook the rice in the broth, which is the secret to the delicious flavor. I got this recipe off of another site and everyone that I have served it to just loves it!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Heat the broth in a medium saucepan until simmering.
- Melt the butter in an oven-safe braiser (or large cast-iron skillet with a lid or 4-quart saute pan with a lid) over medium-high heat. Add the shallots and mushrooms, tossing to coat in the butter, and cook, stirring once or twice, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the sherry, allowing the pan to deglaze. Add the rice and allow it to toast and soak in the flavors of the pan. Add about 4 cups of the hot broth to the pan. Add the thyme and bay leaf. Cover the braiser and place it in the oven to bake until the rice is almost cooked, 1 hour to 1 hour and 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the coriander, salt and pepper. Brush the chicken with the olive oil, then dust all over with the seasoning. Set aside.
- Fluff the rice with a fork and check on doneness. It should still have some chew with some grains just starting to pop open. Stir in the cranberries. Add the remaining hot broth to keep the dish brothy. Add the chicken breasts to the braiser, laying them at an angle so that most of the chicken is submerged in the rice. Shingle the lemon slices in between the chicken breasts. Cover and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook until the chicken registers an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, about another 10 minutes. Top with the parsley or thyme before serving.

Steps:
- Combine water and rice in a small heavy saucepan; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to maintain a simmer, and cook until tender, 35 to 40 minutes. Drain.
- Meanwhile, place chicken in a large skillet or saucepan. Add lightly salted water to cover and bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat and simmer gently until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink in the middle, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a clean cutting board and let cool.
- Heat oil in a Dutch oven or large high-sided skillet over medium heat. Add leeks and cook, stirring occasionally, until just starting to brown, 4 to 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until their liquid has been released and has evaporated, 12 to 14 minutes. Add sherry, increase heat to high and cook until most of the liquid has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Sprinkle the vegetables with flour and stir to coat. Add milk; bring to a simmer and cook for 1 minute, stirring. Stir in Parmesan, sour cream, parsley, salt and pepper. Remove from the heat.
- Preheat oven to 350°F Coat a 9-by-13-inch (or similar 3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.

WILD RICE AND MUSHROOM CASSEROLE
This hearty mix of wild rice, creamy white beans and aromatic vegetables (spinach, leeks, fennel and mushrooms) makes a satisfying meatless main course or a very substantial side dish for Thanksgiving - and beyond. If you want to go all out, use some exotic mushrooms such as chanterelles, maitake (hen of the woods) or black trumpet, but a basic combination of cremini and shiitake mushrooms also works perfectly.

Steps:
- Taste broth; if bland, season to taste with salt. In a medium pot, bring broth to a boil over high heat. Stir in rice, lower heat, cover and simmer until just tender, about 40 minutes or according to package directions. Fluff rice with a fork, cover and let stand for 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, sauté vegetables: In a large, heavy skillet, heat 3 tablespoons oil over high heat. Add half the mushrooms and cook, stirring, until brown and crispy, about 8 minutes. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning. Transfer cooked mushrooms to a plate and sprinkle lightly with salt. Repeat with remaining mushrooms and another tablespoon oil, adding more oil to the skillet if it looks dry.
- In the empty skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Stir in leeks, fennel and 1 teaspoon salt; cook, stirring, until soft but not browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in spinach, chopped garlic, tomato paste and red pepper flakes, and cook until garlic starts turning golden, another 2 minutes. Remove skillet from heat.
- Heat oven to 400 degrees, and oil a 9-by-13-inch casserole dish.
- In a blender, purée 2 cans beans with their liquid, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 grated garlic clove, and salt to taste. (If your beans are unsalted, they might need more than you'd think.)
- Stir bean purée, remaining whole beans (drained), mushrooms, cilantro, parsley and cooked wild rice into skillet with vegetables. Taste and add more salt or lemon as needed; it should be well seasoned. Scrape into prepared baking dish.
- In a small bowl, combine bread crumbs, rosemary, lemon zest, remaining 2 grated garlic cloves and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Stir in 1/4 cup olive oil and Parmesan, if using.
- Sprinkle evenly on top of casserole and bake until golden, 20 to 30 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving, topped with flaky sea salt.
