Wild Rice With Dried Cranberries and Apricots
Ingredients
8 ounces (1-1/3 cups) wild rice
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
3/4 cup dried cranberries
3/4 cup dried apricots, diced
4 green onions (scallions), sliced
Peel of one orange, grated
3/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons minced fresh rosemary
1-1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Step 1:
In a medium saucepan over high heat, bring wild rice and chicken
broth to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 50 minutes
or until tender. Drain rice; discard broth.
Step 2:
Add cranberries, apricots, green onions, orange peel, orange juice,
olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper and mix well. Refrigerate until
ready to serve. Serve chilled. For food-safety reasons, do not let
salad sit at room temperature for more than 2 hours
