Ingredients:

Serving

1/4 cup water
1 (16-oz) can fat-free , less-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup uncooked wild rice
1 tbsp butter or stick margarine
1 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1 cup chopped dried figs
2 oz prosciutto or ham, thinly sliced (about 1/2 cup)
3/4 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp salt, divided
1/2 tsp black pepper, divided
1/4 tsp paprika
4 (4-oz) skinned, boned chicken breast halves
1 tsp vegetable oil
thyme sprigs (optional)

Directions:

Bring water and broth to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the wild rice; cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 1 hour or until rice is tender.
Melt the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and celery; sauté for 5 minutes or until tender. Stir in the rice, figs, prosciutto, thyme, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and paprika. Remove from heat, and keep warm.
Sprinkle the chicken with 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken breasts, and cook for 7 minutes on each side or until done. Serve the chicken with wild rice pilaf, and garnish with thyme sprigs, if desired.
