Ingredients

  • 11/4 cup Floating Leaf Sprouted Crimson Lentils, Wild Rice and Quinoa
  • 33/4 cup chicken stock*
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 tablespoons butter, divided*
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
  • 8 ounces brown mushroom, sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon pinch of kosher salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 11/4 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 Serrano pepper, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
  • Heroine Chicken

  • Green Beans (recipe below)

Instructions

Rinse the Floating Leaf Sprouted Crimson Lentils, Wild Rice and Quinoa under cold water.

In a medium sauce pan over high heat, combine the chicken stock, rice and 1 bay leaf, stirring occasionally. Once boiling, continue to cook for 5 minutes. Then reduce the heat to medium low, cover and cook for 20 more minutes, or until done. Set aside.

In a medium sauté pan, over medium high heat, combine 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil, stirring to combine. Add the mushrooms, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, stirring occasionally and until brown, about 5-7 minutes. When done, transfer to a bowl and set aside.

Return the pan to the stove, over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil, stirring until combined and melted. Add the onions and Serrano pepper and cook until caramelized, about 7 minutes. Turn off the heat. Then add the mushrooms to the sauté pan and the cooked rice, stirring to combine. Top with chopped parsley. Serve on a platter with Heroine chicken, Mashed Potatoes (recipe below) and Green Beans (recipe below).


Notes

To make it vegan, use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock and olive oil instead of butter.
