Wild Rice Bake

Wild rice is native to the Great Lakes region of the United States. It
is only distantly related to white rice. Though no longer wild, it
still has a complex taste and texture that more than justi es its
price.
1. In a saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. Add wild rice and
reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook 30 to 40 minutes—
until kernels open and are tender but not mushy.
2. Select “Cookbooks” on the touchscreen. Select “Eggs, Poultry &
Meats” followed by “Chicken and Mushroom Wild Rice Bake.
Press “Preheat” to begin the preheat cycle.
3. While rice is cooking, sauté the mushrooms in butter until
tender. Add  our and continue to cook until thick and bubbly.
Slowly add the chicken stock, stirring with a whisk until thick
and smooth. Slowly add the half-and-half and salt. Continue to
stir until thick. Cool the mushroom sauce and add the sour
cream and sherry.
4. Spread cooked wild rice in a buttered ceramic or Pyrex dish (11
x 7 x 2-inch). Spread half of the mushroom sauce over the rice.
5. Place chicken breasts on top of the sauced rice, and spread
remaining half of mushroom sauce over the chicken. Top with
Parmesan cheese.
6. Place dish in the oven and press “Start. Bake for 17 minutes.
