Ingredients:

Serving

1 1/2 cups wild rice
3/4 cup short grain brown rice
6 cups chicken broth
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 onion, minced
1 cup celery, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced (optional)
1 tbsp butter
2 apples, cored and cut into 1/2-inch dice
1/3 cup pecans
2 tbsp fresh sage, finely chopped
1/3 cup dried cranberries

Directions:

In a large saucepan, simmer the wild rice in 4 1/2 cups broth, salt to taste, until the grains start to break open; drain off any liquid, return to the pot and stretch a clean kitchen towel beneath the lid and let sit 10 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a smaller saucepan, simmer the brown rice, with 1 1/2 cups broth, salt, until tender and all the liquid has been absorbed, 35 to 40 minutes; turn off heat and stretch a clean kitchen towel under the lid and let sit 10 to 15 minutes.
In a large skillet, heat oil, over medium heat, and cook the onion, stirring often, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes.
Add celery and a generous pinch of salt, and continue cooking another 3 or 4 minutes; stir in garlic, if using, and cook 30 seconds.
Remove from heat and transfer to a large bowl; add rices and toss well.
Increase the heat in the skillet to medium high and add the butter; when the foaming subsides, add apple, stirring until they begin to caramelize, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and add to the rice mixture; add remaining ingredients, toss and season to taste with salt and pepper.
Preheat oven to 325 degrees F; grease a large baking dish with butter or oil.
Transfer rice mixture to baking dish, cover with aluminum foil, and warm in oven for 20 to 30 minutes.
NOTE: The rices can be cooked up to 3 days in advance. The entire dish is better the second day, so you can make it a day ahead and heat the day you are serving it.
