Wild Rice And Goat Cheese Dressing Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the rice, 4 cups water and 1 tablespoon of salt in a large saucepan, cover and bring to a boil over high heat and cook until the grains open all the way, about 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours. The rice should be very cooked (not even the slightest chewy). Drain well, place in a large bowl and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Butter a 13x9x2 -inch baking dish.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium saute pan over high heat. Add the chorizo and cook until golden brown. Remove the sausage with a slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels.
• Melt the remaining butter in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the onions, carrots and celery and cook until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the onion mixture, bread, parsley, 3 cups of the chicken stock and the egg to the rice and mix well to combine. The mixture should be very wet; add more stock, if needed. Fold in the goat cheese and season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish and bake, uncovered, until heated through and golden brown, about 30 minutes. Remove the dressing from the oven and let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, combine rice, chicken stock, and seasoning blend and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to a simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes or until stock is absorbed. Stir in remaining ingredients and serve warm.

Steps:

• Spiced Pecans:
• In a small bowl combine the paprika, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat add the sugar and cook until all of the sugar is melted and light brown in color. Carefully whisk in the butter. Add the spice mix and turn off the heat. Add the pecans and stir with a rubber spatula until all of the pecans are completely coated. Spray with nonstick cooking spray which will help the pecans separate. Once all of the pecans are coated turn out onto a greased sheet tray or a sheet tray lined with a silicone mat. Break up any pieces that may be stuck together. Let cool 5 minutes before serving with the salad.
• In a medium bowl whisk together the goat cheese and buttermilk. Whisk in the remaining dressing ingredients until combined and smooth. Set aside.
• Heat the canola oil in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and fry until crispy and light brown, about 5 minutes. Remove to a plate lined with a paper towel to drain.
• Add the greens to a large bowl. Drizzle with 3/4 of the dressing, season with salt and pepper, to taste, and toss to coat the greens. Transfer the salad to a platter and garnish with candied pecans, sliced grapes, and fried shallots. Drizzle with remaining dressing and serve.

Steps:

Steps:

• For Dressing: Combine corn oil, goat cheese, vinegar, oregano, cumin and cloves in large bowl and whisk until well blended. Set aside.
• For Salad: Bring 4 1/2 cups water to simmer in heavy large saucepan. Add rice and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook until rice is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand 5 minutes.
• Transfer rice to large bowl. Fluff with fork. Pour goat cheese dressing over hot rice and let cool, tossing occasionally. Mix in corn, red and green bell peppers, red and green onions and chives. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Rice salad can be prepared 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Let stand 2 hours at room temperature before serving.)

Steps:

• Cube & dry bread. (I do this the night before on baking sheet in a 200° oven, tossing frequently.) Put in large bowl.
• Cook chorizo thoroughly over medium heat. Drain using colander lined with several paper towels.
• Sauté onion, celery, carrot in butter until soft. Add garlic & thyme and cook another minute.
• Combine sautéed mixture, wild rice, parsley and *some* chicken broth with the bread. (You want this to be quite wet. Start with 3 cups of broth & add more until it is.).
• Add goat cheese and chorizo. Mix lightly so the chevre & chorizo don't 'disappear' completely into dressing.
• Add salt and pepper to taste.
• Butter or Non-stick Spray a large casserole dish (or foil pan(s)). Add dressing and place, uncovered, in a pre-heated 350° oven. Bake 30 - 45 minutes (until heated all the way through & lightly browned). Cover with foil & let rest for approximately 10 minutes.
• Serve and enjoy!
• (Leftovers are wonderful. Just sprinkle with more chicken broth & heat.).
