It's naughty because one is not supposed to have Red Wine with Chicken or Fish. I adore this dish. If you have leftovers, the Wild Rice pops (sort of like Pop Corn) when reheated & this gives it another great taste.
Ingredients
- 1 Box wild rice shopping list
- 3 1/2 Cups water (I use chicken stock & water. 1/2 of each) shopping list
- 1/2 Cup red wine shopping list
- 1 Medium onion (Diced) shopping list
- 2-3 cloves garlic (Sliced) shopping list
- 1 Box mushrooms (Washed, Dried & Sliced) shopping list
- 2-4 Pieces of cooked (left over) chicken (Cut off bones, remove skin (I do) & cut into bite size) shopping list
- Note: Any Left Over fish, Meat or Poultry is good) shopping list
- olive oil shopping list
- salt shopping list
- coarse black pepper shopping list
- !-2 Tablespoons tarragon shopping list
How to make it
- In a Large pot mix the Water (& Chicken Stock), the Red Wine & a couple pinches Salt.
- Bring to a boil.
- Add the Wild Rice, cover & reduce heat.
- Cook for 50-60 minutes.
- When Wild Rice is done, drain it & let it rest for 5 minutes.
- *****While the Wild Rice is Cooking*****
- In a skillet, heat Olive Oil
- Put diced Onions in & allow to become translucent (On High, stirring about 3-5 minutes)
- Add Garlic (Pan roast the Garlic for about 2-3 minutes)
- Then put in sliced Mushrooms, Salt, Pepper & Tarragon & stir.
- Taste after about 5 minutes.
- Adjust seasoning.
- Add the chunks of Chicken (Or Left Overs) & stir.
- Reduce heat & cook until the Meat, Fish or Chicken is warm on the inside.
- Remove from heat.
- Add the skillet contents to the precooked Wild Red Rice & mix gently.
- Enjoy with people you like.
- If there are leftovers (Ha), heat in skillet.
- The Wild Red Rice will pop & indeed, be red:)

I have some wild wild rice(uncultivated)that will be great made with this recipe. In Minnesota our wild rice comes in zip-loc bags. But I am sure I can figure it out. Yum.
