CLASSIC CHICKEN AND WILD RICE HOTDISH



Classic Chicken and Wild Rice Hotdish image

Provided by Amy Thielen

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1/2 cup natural wild rice
Fine sea salt
1 bay leaf
6 tablespoons salted butter, plus more for the baking dish
2 leeks, white and light green parts, diced
3 stalks celery, diced
Freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk
2/3 cup heavy cream
3/4 cup low-sodium chicken stock
3/4 teaspoon dried thyme (or 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh)
1/4 teaspoon grated nutmeg
2 cups roughly chopped cooked chicken
4 ounces aged Gouda or aged cheddar cheese, grated (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 cups coarsely ground buttery crackers (such as Ritz or Club; about 2 sleeves)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Put the rice in a fine-mesh sieve and rinse it under cold running water, swishing the rice with your hand until the water runs clear. Transfer the rice to a medium bowl and add water to cover. Pour off any black bits or floating kernels, pour the rice back into the sieve to drain, then put it in a small saucepan. Add 1 1/4 cups water, a pinch of salt and the bay leaf; bring to a simmer. Cover the pan and reduce the heat to low. Cook 25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the water has evaporated. (If liquid remains after the rice is done, drain it in a sieve.)
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Heat the butter in a large high-sided skillet over medium heat. Add the leeks and celery and season with 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the flour to the vegetables and stir until well combined. Pour in the milk and bring to a simmer, whisking to prevent any lumps. Add the cream, chicken stock, thyme, nutmeg and 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper. Simmer over low heat until the floury taste dissipates, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the cooked chicken, wild rice (minus the bay leaf) and half of the cheese and heat until the cheese melts.
  • Put the crushed crackers in a heavy plastic bag and add 1/4 teaspoon pepper and the olive oil. Shake to combine and set aside.
  • Rub a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with a thin layer of soft butter. Pour the chicken mixture into the dish and top with the remaining cheese. Bake 25 minutes.
  • Pull the dish from the oven, sprinkle the cracker mixture over the top and bake until the crackers turn golden brown and the mixture bubbles in the center, 15 to 20 more minutes. Serve immediately.

CHICKEN & WILD RICE



Chicken & Wild Rice image

This another of my mom's recipes, and one of my all time favorites. It just takes a few minutes to put together, and gives you time to relax etc, while it bakes. I make this when I need something special, but don't have the time to invest in "fancy". I think the best type of pan to use for this, is the bottom part of a broiler pan, but a 13x9 works fine too. One final note - for some families, once box of the rice might be enough. We just love the rice so much, that I use 2 - the leftovers are fabulous, even if it's just rice leftover, and no chicken.

Categories     Rice

Time 1h5m

Yield 4-5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 chicken breasts or 4 one chicken, cut up
2 (8 ounce) boxes uncle ben's long grain and wild rice blend (not the instant version)
water
1 (1 ounce) envelope dry onion soup mix
butter (margarine, etc)

Steps:

  • Rinse chicken and pat dry. Pour contents of Rice mix in pan (there will be an spice mix in the box - add that too). Lay chicken on top of rice. Add the amount of water listed on the rice mix, I think it's 2 ¼ cup, for each box. Sprinkle on dry soup mix. Dot with butter. ( I use about 3 tablespoons butter - my Mom used an entire stick - your choice :).
  • Cover with foil or lid, and bake for about 45 minutes - remove cover and bake another 20 minutes. Cooking time will vary based on type of chicken parts used. If you use boneless skinless chicken be sure to to adjust time or chicken will be very dry.
