Instructions

  1. Combine wild rice, broth, and salt in a medium saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 20 to 40 minutes as directed by package instructions.

  2. Meanwhile, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté onion and celery for 3 to 4 minutes until translucent. Add mushrooms, garlic, and sage, continuing to sauté for 5 minutes until mushrooms are tender and browned.

  3. Stir in dried cranberries, salt, and pepper; remove the skillet from heat.

  4. Verify rice tenderness; if needed, cook an additional 5 to 10 minutes, then let it rest covered off heat for 10 minutes.

  5. Drain any unabsorbed liquid from the rice. In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, mushroom mixture, pecans, and parsley, then season to taste and serve.
