Serves 4

Fried Wild Rice with Chicken

Ingredients:

½ Pound Hand Harvested Wild Rice
2 Cups Water
1 Tablespoon Chicken Soup Base (I use Penzey’s)
2 Chicken Breasts
½ Small Onion, diced
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
3 Eggs, lightly beaten
3 Stalks of Green Onion, diced
1 Cup Bean sprouts (optional)
2 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
1 Tablespoon Sesame Oil
3 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil

The Night Before:

1. Rinse the wild rice and place in a saucepan with the water and chicken soup base
2. Bring to a boil
3. Turn the heat down to low and cover
4. Cook for a half an hour or until the water is absorbed
5. After removing from the heat fluff with a fork
6. While the rice is cooking add 1 tablespoon of the vegetable oil to a sauté pan and heat
   over med/high heat
7. Add the chicken breasts and sear until nicely browned, 3-4 min., flip and repeat on the
   other side
8. Cool the rice and chicken over night

To Make The Fried Rice:

1. Chop the chicken into small cubes
2. Using your hands or a fork break up any clumps that may have formed in the rice
3. In a small sauté pan scramble the eggs and set aside
4. Have all of the ingredients prepared and close at hand
5. Heat the remaining vegetable oil in a wok or large sauté pan over high heat
6. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until the onions become
   translucent, 1-2 min
7. Add the chicken and rice, continue to cook, stirring constantly for 5-7 more minutes
8. Add the egg, green onion, bean sprouts (if using), sesame oil, and soy sauce
9. Cook, stirring, until everything is well incorporated

Serve and enjoy!
