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.

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.
  • Fluff rice, then top with sautéed mushrooms and serve.

MUSHROOM CHICKEN OVER RICE



Mushroom Chicken over Rice image

I first saw this recipe in a Good House Keeping Cooking Book years ago. And it has turned into one of my families favorite. This is a great recipe as you can use just the number of breast you need or add more without having to add more other ingredients. Follow Rice package instructions for prep on rice. Is good over white or brown. I usually use milk, at least 1/4 cup as I don't often have cream on hand but the cream does make it scrumptious. We usually use more mushrooms because we love the mushrooms. You can sub canned mushrooms but they don't add as nice a flavor to the finished dish. Try Beef Broth for a heartier taste as well. If you follow the recipe exactly in preparation it will come out perfect everytime. Even if the gravy starts out lumpy!

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and utensils ready to go. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling around while you're cooking.
  • Choose the right mushrooms: For this recipe, you can use any type of mushroom you like. However, some common choices include white button mushrooms, cremini mushrooms, and shiitake mushrooms.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the mushrooms, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and will make them more likely to steam instead of brown.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use to cook the rice will add a lot of flavor to the dish. Be sure to use a broth that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Garnish with fresh herbs: Before serving, garnish the dish with fresh herbs such as parsley, cilantro, or basil. This will add a pop of color and freshness to the dish.
