Sautéed Wild Rice

With the holidays quickly approaching, it’s time to dust off the old recipes and learn some new ones. The following recipe is an excellent side dish. I made this at Thanksgiving and it got rave reviews from the family! It’s healthy and easy, too! If you want to make it into a meal, rather than just a side dish, throw in some grilled chicken, tofu or salmon and add some extra veggies of your choice.

Sautéed Wild Rice

Ingredients:
¼ cup olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, chopped
1 cup of corn kernels (if using frozen, be sure to thaw it)
6 cups of wild rice, cooked
3 green onions, chopped
1 cup of pecans, toasted and chopped
sea salt and pepper, to taste

Directions
  • Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan, add the onion and bell pepper and sauté until the onion is translucent

  • Add the corn, cooked rice and green onions.

  • Season with sea salt and pepper, remove from heat

  • Top with toasted pecans and serve
