1
Rinse and Prepare Wild Rice
Rinse the wild rice under cold water in a fine-mesh sieve. This helps to remove any debris and excess starch.
2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed wild rice, water or vegetable broth, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 45-50 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has split open. Remove from heat and let it sit covered for 10 minutes.
3
Sauté the Vegetables
While the rice is cooking, heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, cooking for another 5-7 minutes until the mushrooms are tender.
4
Combine and Serve
Once the rice is ready, fluff it with a fork and add it to the sautéed vegetables in the skillet. Toss to combine and heat through. Finish with fresh parsley and serve warm.
