Savory Wild Rice Casserole

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 1 hour Bake: 45 min. YIELD: 8-10 servings.
Seasoned with sage and tasty pork sausage, this filling rice casserole is a hearty accompaniment to roast turkey, chicken or duck. I especially like the crunch that the sliced water chestnuts add.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 cup uncooked wild rice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
  • 1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 1 can (8 ounces) mushroom stems and pieces, drained
  • 1 can (8 ounces) sliced water chestnuts, drained
  • 1 teaspoon rubbed sage

Directions

  • 1. In a saucepan, combine water, rice and salt; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 55-60 minutes or until rice is tender. Meanwhile, in a skillet, cook sausage and onion until meat is no longer pink; drain. Add broth, soup, mushrooms, water chestnuts, sage and rice. Transfer to a greased 3-qt. baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 45-50 minutes or until heated through.
