Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ¼ cups water
1 (6 ounce) package uncooked long grain and wild rice mix, with seasoning packet
2 tablespoons salted butter, divided
½ cup diced onions
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup frozen corn
1 (8 ounce) package imitation crabmeat, chopped
½ teaspoon ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Combine water, wild rice mix, contents of seasoning packet, and 1 tablespoon butter in a medium saucepan. Stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low or medium-low, cover, and simmer until water is absorbed, about 25 minutes.
  • While rice is cooking, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large frying pan over low heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Add beans and corn; cook, stirring often, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Add imitation crab and season with pepper. Saute until imitation crab is warm, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Mix cooked rice into the crab mixture and serve immediately.

I'm not sure why this dish is called 'imitation crab and wild rice'. There was no crab in it!

This dish was a little too bland for my taste. I added some extra seasonings and it was much better.

This dish was easy to make and very tasty. I used fresh crab instead of imitation crab, and it was even better.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great! The imitation crab was a nice substitute for real crab, and the wild rice added a nutty flavor.
