Time 5h20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small yellow onion (diced)
2 ribs celery (finely sliced)
16 ounces cremini baby bella mushrooms, (sliced)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 1/2 cups uncooked brown and wild rice blend (rinsed and drained)
5 1/2 cups low sodium chicken broth ( or vegetable broth)
2/3 cup reduced sugar dried cranberries
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
1/2 cup slivered almonds (toasted)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium. Add the onions and celery and let cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and lightly brown, about 8 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high, then add the mushrooms. Let cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms are soft and most of the liquid has evaporated, about 6 minutes.

  • In a 3- or 4-quart slow cooker, stir together the wild rice blend and sautéed vegetables. Carefully pour in the chicken broth (if using a 3-quart slow cooker, it will be full nearly to the top). Gently stir, then cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or high for 2 to 3 hours, until the rice is tender. Turn off the slow cooker, then stir in the cranberries, sage, and thyme.
  • Taste and add additional salt and/or pepper as desired. Cover and let stand 10 minutes. Just before serving, sprinkle the toasted almonds over the top. Serve warm.

ROAST CAPON WITH WILD RICE SOURDOUGH STUFFING



Roast Capon with Wild Rice Sourdough Stuffing image

Capon (a neutered male chicken weighing from six to nine pounds) is a nice alternative to turkey for a small holiday gathering.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 cups water
Salt
1 1/2 cups mixed uncooked wild and brown rice
4 ounces pancetta, cubed (see Note)
2 onions, chopped
5-6 carrots, peeled and chopped
4 ribs celery, chopped
Freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 cups chicken stock, plus up to 1 cup more for moistening stuffing, if needed
1/4 cup shredded fresh sage leaves
1-2 tablespoons unsalted butter (optional)
5 cups cubed stale sourdough bread
1/4 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 capon, about 7 to 8 pounds, washed and patted dry

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring water to a boil. Add 1 teaspoon salt. Add rice; return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover tightly, and cook for 45 minutes, or until tender. Spread on a plate to cool.
  • Meanwhile, place pancetta in a large, deep frying pan over medium-low heat. Cook until fat is rendered and pancetta is crisp, 10 to 15 minutes. Add onions and cook until they begin to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn up heat to medium; add carrots and celery. Cook until soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  • Add stock and bring to a simmer. Add sage and reduce until thick and soupy, about 5 minutes over medium-high heat. Add butter, if desired, and stir until melted.
  • Add rice to pan and stir until moistened. Place bread cubes in a large bowl and combine with rice-vegetable mixture. Add more stock as needed until stuffing is slightly moist but not soggy. Stir in parsley.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Season cavity of capon with salt and pepper. Stuff just before roasting. Rub capon with a little softened butter or olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Tie legs together with butcher?s twine and place in a roasting pan.
  • Turn oven down to 375 degrees and roast capon for 25 minutes per pound, or until juices run clear when thigh is pricked with a fork. Let sit, loosely covered with foil, for 10 minutes before carving.

Tips:

  • Using high-quality ingredients is crucial for achieving the best flavor. Opt for fresh vegetables, flavorful herbs, and spices.
  • If you don't have sourdough bread, you can substitute it with a loaf of French bread or a baguette. However, sourdough bread provides a tangy and unique flavor that complements the stuffing.
  • Feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your preference. Add more herbs, spices, or salt and pepper to taste.
  • For a crispier topping, melt some butter and brush it over the stuffing before baking.
  • Leftover stuffing can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooker sourdough and wild rice stuffing is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a side dish or a main course. Its combination of flavors and textures makes it a perfect addition to any holiday gathering or special occasion. With its ease of preparation and minimal effort, this recipe is sure to become a favorite among home cooks and stuffing enthusiasts alike.
