Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Melt butter in heavy oven-proof skillet. Saute mushrooms and shallots until tender. Add rice and pecans and stir until coated with butter. Add remaining ingredients and bring to rolling boil.
Remove from heat, cover and bake 1 hour or until rice is tender. Remove bay leaves; garnish with additional pecans and serve hot.
4-6 servings.
NOTES : Beef or chicken or even a good vegetable broth will work for this. Try a Wild & Brown Rice for something different.
If your bay leaves are large, don't use but one.
Serving Ideas : Try this with Roasted Chicken or Turkey.
