Recipe View Once boiling, reduce the heat to the lowest setting, cover tightly, and simmer gently until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed. This should take approximately 50 to 60 minutes. Avoid lifting the lid during this time to ensure even cooking. (50-60 minutes)

For a richer flavor, toast the brown rice in the skillet for a few minutes before adding the other ingredients.
Consider adding a bay leaf or a sprig of fresh rosemary to the pot during simmering for an extra layer of aroma.
This dish is also excellent with the addition of toasted nuts (such as pecans or walnuts) or dried cranberries after cooking.
To reheat, add a splash of broth or water to prevent drying out.

    I love that you can prep this in advance. It frees up oven space when I'm cooking a big meal.

    The wild rice turned out perfectly! I added some toasted pecans for extra crunch.

    I think it needs more salt.
