Name: Wild Rice Stuffing
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 1 h
Total time: 1 h 15 min
Yield: 6 servings
Cuisine: American
Ingredients: 1 cup wild rice; 2½ cups chicken or vegetable broth; 1 tablespoon olive oil; 1 onion, diced; 2 celery stalks, chopped; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 teaspoon dried thyme; 1 teaspoon dried sage; ½ cup dried cranberries; ½ cup chopped pecans; Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

In a medium saucepan, combine the wild rice and broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery, sautéing until softened, about 5-7 minutes. Add the minced garlic and continue cooking for another minute until fragrant.
Stir in the dried thyme and sage, allowing the herbs to release their flavors. Then, add the cooked wild rice to the skillet, along with the dried cranberries and chopped pecans. Mix well to combine all ingredients.
Season the stuffing with salt and pepper to taste, adjusting the seasoning as needed. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to let the flavors meld together. Remove from heat.
Transfer the wild rice stuffing to a serving dish and garnish with additional chopped pecans and fresh herbs, if desired. Serve warm alongside your favorite holiday entrees or enjoy as a standalone dish for a cozy evening meal.
