BOBBY FLAY'S WILD RICE AND GOAT CHEESE DRESSING
Bobby Flay adds a Latin note to his stuffing with spicy chorizo and goat cheese because he loves it and it goes really well with wild rice. It may not be classic, but it's delicious.

Steps:
- Combine the rice, 4 cups water, and 1 tablespoon salt in a large saucepan, cover, and bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the grains open all the way, about 1 1/4 - 1 1/2 hours. The rice should be very cooked (not even the slightest bit chewy). Drain well, place in a large bowl, and set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 13x9x2-inch baking dish.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium sauté pan over high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until golden brown. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
- Melt the remaining butter in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots, and celery and cook until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
- Add the onion mixture, bread, parsley, 3 cups of the chicken stock, and the egg to the rice and mix well to combine. The mixture should be very wet; add more stock, if needed. Fold in the goat cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and bake, uncovered, until heated through and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove the dressing from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

WILD RICE, GOAT CHEESE AND CHORIZO DRESSING
I first found this watching Bobby Flay on Food TV several years ago. Ever since the first time I made it, I've been required to bring it for every Thanksgiving & Christmas dinner! I've made a few adjustments from the original, partly for our tastes and partly for ease. Hope you enjoy this interesting dressing like we do! :)

Steps:
- Cube & dry bread. (I do this the night before on baking sheet in a 200° oven, tossing frequently.) Put in large bowl.
- Cook chorizo thoroughly over medium heat. Drain using colander lined with several paper towels.
- Sauté onion, celery, carrot in butter until soft. Add garlic & thyme and cook another minute.
- Combine sautéed mixture, wild rice, parsley and *some* chicken broth with the bread. (You want this to be quite wet. Start with 3 cups of broth & add more until it is.).
- Add goat cheese and chorizo. Mix lightly so the chevre & chorizo don't 'disappear' completely into dressing.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Butter or Non-stick Spray a large casserole dish (or foil pan(s)). Add dressing and place, uncovered, in a pre-heated 350° oven. Bake 30 - 45 minutes (until heated all the way through & lightly browned). Cover with foil & let rest for approximately 10 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
- (Leftovers are wonderful. Just sprinkle with more chicken broth & heat.).
