This hot dish is convenient because it's made in the microwave. It has nice flavor and looks good, too. Even though I've been making it for more than 10 years, I still get requests for it.Mary Bondegard, Brooksville, Florida Ingredients:
1 package (6 ounces) long grain and wild rice |
1 pound bulk pork sausage |
1 cup chopped green onions |
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
2 tablespoons king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1 cup chicken broth |
1/4 cup half-and-half cream |
Directions:
1. Prepare rice according to package directions; set aside. Crumble sausage into an ungreased 2-qt. microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave on high for 3-5 minutes or until no longer pink. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain; reserve 2 tablespoons drippings.
2. Add onions and mushrooms to drippings. Cover and microwave on high for 3 minutes or until tender, stirring twice. Stir in the flour until blended. Gradually add broth and cream. Cover and cook on high for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened, stirring twice. Stir in rice and sausage. Cover and microwave on high for 7-12 minutes or until liquid is absorbed.
