Directions

  1. 1. Heat the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat; add the onion, mushrooms, carrot, basil and black pepper; saute until the onion is soft and the mushrooms have wilted, about three minutes.
  2. 2. Add the chicken stock and bring to the boil. Stir in the brown rice and the wild rice; reduce heat. Let simmer for 20 to 25 minutes or until the rice is tender and most of the broth is absorbed.
  3. 3. Stir in the peas and continue to cook for an additional two minutes or until heated throughout.
