WHAT YOU'LL NEED


Minute Rice® Premium Long Grain White Rice
1 cup
6		boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1/2 lb		mushrooms, sliced (crimini, portabello, shiitake)
1 tbsp		butter
1		shallot, diced
1		clove garlic, minced
1 tbsp		fresh thyme
1 tbsp		fresh rosemary, chopped
1/4 cup		white wine, or chicken stock
1 1/2 cup		cream (table cream or heavy cream)
1/2 cup		fresh grated Parmesan
Garnish:		Chopped parsley

INSTRUCTIONS

Step 1: In a large skillet, over medium-high heat, brown chicken thighs, 5-7 minutes on either side. Remove chicken thighs from pan, cover with foil and set aside.

Step 2: To the same pan used for the chicken add sliced mushrooms over medium-high heat. Saute 2-3 minutes, just until they begin to release their moisture. Add butter, shallot, and garlic to the pan. Saute 1-2 minutes. Add fresh thyme and rosemary. Cook another minute or until herbs become fragrant.

Step 3: Pour white wine into pan with mushrooms to deglaze; scrape up any stuck-on bits using a wooden spoon. Cook until most of the wine has evaporated.

Step 4: To the mushrooms add cream and Minute Rice. Stir until evenly distributed in pan. Place cooked thighs on top of rice. Lower heat to medium-low, cover and let simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5: Remove from heat and stir in grated parmesan cheese. Garnish with chopped parsley. Serve hot.

What are some of your favourite hearty Fall recipes?

Golden chicken thighs are served atop rich and creamy mushroom rice. The rice gets a nice punch of umami from earthy mushrooms and flavourful Parmesan cheese. Best of all, it’s all done in one pan so clean up is a breeze! That’s what I call a #WeekdayWin!
