I was looking to use up some of a turkey that I had roasted when we got tired of leftovers. I’ve changed a few things from the original recipe including adding some herbs and specifying homemade chicken stock.
1 box UNCLE BEN’S® Long Grain & Wild Rice, Original Recipe
2 T. vegetable oil
1 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup carrots, peeled and finely chopped
3 tablespoons sherry
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 cups homemade chicken stock
1 cup cooked, chopped chicken or turkey
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
Salt and pepper, to taste
Parsley and Penzey’s Mural of Flavor, to taste
Recipe
Cook the rice, according to directions.
Sauté the onion and carrots in a soup pot in some oil over medium heat until tender. Add the sherry and cook until the liquid disappears.
Stir in the flour and cook a couple of minutes. Add the broth, stirring, and bring to a boil. Add the chicken/turkey and rice mixture and simmer a few minutes. Add the lemon juice and seasonings, to taste.
