Steps:
- In a 12 inch non-stick skillet over medium heat melt butter with oil and sauté mushrooms and onions until tender, remove from heat.
- In a 2-quart saucepan over medium high heat, add the olive oil and butter. Once the oil is hot and the butter is melted, add the orzo and stir until lightly toasted, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds, stirring. Add the wine, stir, and cook to deglaze the pan.
- Once the wine has nearly evaporated, add the mushrooms, onions and 1 cup of the stock, stirring constantly until the stock is absorbed by the orzo, about 10 minutes, repeat 1 cup of stock at a time stirring constantly and add the salt, and white pepper with last cup. When the last cup of stock is absorbed stir in the butter and adjust the seasoning, to taste.
FIVE-SPICE CHILE-TEA RUBBED PARTRIDGE WITH GRILLED FENNEL AND WILD MUSHROOM ORZO 'RISOTTO'
Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine the tea, salt, chile flakes, chipotle, garlic, cayenne pepper, green onion flakes, Chinese five spice, and lime zest. Coat both sides of the partridge with the tea spice, reserving 1 tablespoon for the fried mushroom garnish.
- Slice the fennel bulb lengthwise, brush with the grapeseed oil, and season with the salt and pepper. (If fennel bulb is very large, pre-blanch it in boiling salted water for 5 minutes so it doesn't burn on the grill before being cooked through.)
- Place the partridge and the fennel side by side on a hot, well-oiled grill, and cook for about 8 to 12 minutes a side. Be careful to move the partridge around if/when there are flare-ups.
- Plating: On a large platter place a small mound of the 'risotto' in the middle of the bowl. Place bird on top and arrange the fennel around the bird. Drizzle with the truffle oil and garnish with crispy chanterelles and chopped scallions.
- Beverage: Brickhouse Gamay-Noir
- Heat a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the grapeseed oil and swirl to coat the pan. When the oil shimmers add the shallots, garlic, and orzo. Saute, stirring, until soft, about 3 minutes.
- Add a ladleful of the stock and continue to cook, stirring, until the liquid is absorbed. Add more stock and continue to cook and stir, allowing each addition of stock to be absorbed before adding the next, until the orzo is cooked through and has a creamy, risotto-like consistency, about 15 to 20 minutes. Add mushrooms and stir to heat through. Season with the salt and pepper, to taste.
- Toss the flour with a tablespoon of the remaining tea spice mix. Toss the remaining cup of chanterelles in the flour to coat them lightly, then deep fry in hot canola oil for 1 to 2 minutes until brown and crisp on the edges.

Steps:

- Add remaining 1 Tbsp. oil to skillet. Add mushrooms; cover and cook 2 minutes, until softened. Add orzo and cook 1 minute, until lightly toasted. Set 1 cup hot broth aside in glass measure. Gradually add remaining broth to pasta, one cup at a time, every 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Mixture will be soupy, but that's okay.
- Add chicken and preserved 1 cup broth and cook 2-4 minutes more, until thickened. Stir in parmesan.
