Yield 2 Main-course or 6 side-dish servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups water
1/2 cup wild rice
8 ounces sweet Italian sausage, casings removed
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 12-ounce fennel bulb, trimmed, diced
1 large red bell pepper, diced
1/4 teaspoon chopped fennel seeds
2 large leeks (white and pale green parts only), chopped
3 large garlic cloves, minced
1 1/3 cups long-grain brown rice
2 14 1/2-ounce cans low-salt chicken broth

Steps:

  • Simmer water and wild rice in small saucepan 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Heat heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Fry sausage until cooked through, breaking up sausage with fork, about 4 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer sausage to large bowl.
  • Add 2 tablespoons oil to same saucepan. Mix in fennel, bell pepper and fennel seeds and sauté until tender, about 10 minutes. Add to sausage. Heat remaining 1 tablespoon oil in same saucepan. Add leeks and garlic and sauté until tender and golden, about 8 minutes. Add brown rice and stir 1 minute. Mix in broth and wild rice. Season with pepper. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 40 minutes. Add hot rice to sausage mixture and toss well. (Can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.) Serve hot.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had used less oil.

The rice was a bit undercooked for my taste, but I think that's because I didn't cook it for long enough. Next time I will cook it for a few extra minutes.

The dish was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have liked it more if I had added some more herbs and spices.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I think that's because I used a spicy sausage. Next time I will use a milder sausage or reduce the amount of red pepper flakes.

I added some chopped sun-dried tomatoes to the dish and it gave it a nice tangy flavor. I also used a blend of brown and wild rice, which gave it a nice nutty flavor.

I substituted ground turkey for the sausage and it turned out great. The dish was still very flavorful and the turkey was a healthier option.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The rice was fluffy and flavorful, and the sausage and fennel were cooked to perfection. I served it with a side of roasted vegetables and it was a hit with my family.
