WILD RICE WITH MUSHROOMS
Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a large saucepot over medium heat. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the rice and toast while stirring until it begins to smell nutty, about 1 minute. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover and cook on low until the water is absorbed, about 40 minutes.
- While the rice is cooking, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon butter along with the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the button mushrooms, shiitake mushrooms and thyme and cook, stirring often until they begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic, season with salt and pepper and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute more.
- When the rice is cooked, fluff with a fork and gently fold in the mushrooms. Add to a serving bowl and sprinkle with the parsley before serving.

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.

CHICKEN, MUSHROOM & WILD RICE CASSEROLE
In Minnesota, chicken, mushrooms and wild rice are often bound together in a casserole with cream of mushroom soup. We forgo the sodium-rich canned soup and make a light, creamy sauce that gets depth of flavor from dry sherry and Parmesan cheese. If you already have cooked chicken, use 4 cups and skip Step 2.

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 degrees F. Coat a 9-by-13-inch (or similar 3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.
- Cut the chicken into bite-size pieces. Spread the rice in an even layer in the prepared baking dish. Top with the chicken, then green beans. Pour the sauce over the top and spread evenly. Sprinkle with almonds.
- Bake the casserole until it is bubbling and the almonds are golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Chicken: For best results, use boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs. If using chicken breasts, slightly pound them to an even thickness to ensure even cooking.
- Crispy Chicken Coating: To achieve a crispy coating on the chicken, make sure to coat it evenly in the seasoned flour mixture before pan-frying. Additionally, use a combination of butter and olive oil to fry the chicken, as the butter adds flavor while the olive oil helps prevent burning.
- Flavorful Mushroom Sauce: To create a rich and flavorful mushroom sauce, use a variety of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms. Sauté the mushrooms in butter until browned and then deglaze the pan with white wine. Stir in heavy cream, Parmesan cheese, and fresh herbs for a creamy and flavorful sauce.
- Cooking the Wild Rice: For the wild rice, use a combination of wild rice and brown rice for a nutty and chewy texture. Cook the rice according to package instructions, making sure to add a bay leaf and a pinch of salt for extra flavor.
- Baking the Parmesan Chicken: After pan-frying the chicken, transfer it to a baking dish and top it with the mushroom sauce and grated Parmesan cheese. Bake the chicken until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the chicken is cooked through.
- Garnish and Serve: For a visually appealing presentation, garnish the parmesan chicken with fresh parsley or chives and serve it over the cooked wild rice. You can also add a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad to complete the meal.
