Ingredients
1 cup uncooked wild rice1 cup chicken broth1-1/3 cup water1 Tbsp. unsalted butter1/2 large onion, diced3 stalks celery, diced1/2 lb. sliced mushrooms1/2 tsp. salt1/4 tsp. black pepper, black1/2 tsp. dried thyme1/2 tsp. dried marjoram, dried1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce1 tsp. low-sodium soy sauce2 links chicken Italian sausage, sliced
Directions
Bring wild rice, broth, and water to a boil in medium saucepan; reduce heat and simmer until water is absorbed, about 45 minutes.

When wild rice is almost done, melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions and celery and saute until onions begin to turn translucent. Add mushrooms and all seasonings. Continue to saute until vegetables have cooked down and most liquid has evaporated.

When wild rice is fully cooked, turn off heat and add sauteed vegetables to saucepan, folding ingredients together.

Meanwhile, turn up the heat under the now-empty skillet to medium high and add the sliced chicken sausage, browning all sides. Add wild rice and vegetable mixture back to skillet and briefly saute all ingredients together until any remaining liquid has evaporated.

Serving Size: Makes 5 1-cup servings.
