• Uncle Bens Brown & Wild Rice Mushroom Directions:.
• Using Medium saucepan combine rice, contents of seasoning packet, 4 1/4 cups water and 2 tablespoons butter or margarine.
• Stir well.
• Bring contents to a boil, REDUCE HEAT (low to medium low) and simmer covered 25 minutes or until water is absorbed.
• Place chicken on a bed of the Uncle Ben's rice, making sure to get plenty of the sauce that is around the chicken.
• Sprinkle with fresh chopped Parsley.
• Enjoy!
• ***NOTE***.
• This recipe was originally cooked in an electric skillet at 375° for 1 1/2 hours, with steam vent closed, and NO added water.
• It always came out moist w/ a fine gravy/sauce. I lost my electric skillet in a house fire, being on SS I never have the $ to get another I liked, so I changed the recipe for the oven. The difference in heat source I guess makes the need for added moisture.
• Adding the small amount of water makes a gravy/sauce that is super when served as suggested.
• There are many choices of Uncle Ben's Rice Recipes, choose the one you prefer. I like to add extra mushrooms, or other special touches such as parsley, and sometimes I just use a standard rice pilaf, with tiny chips of veggies.
• We never make any other side dishes, this is more than satisfying.
• Do not fuss over finger licking as people continue to pick every bite off the bones.
