Ingredients
 
 

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion finely chopped
  • 1 carrot diced
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1.1 pounds cremini mushrooms finely sliced
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp sweet paprika
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary
  • 3/4 cups wild rice quick-cooking
  • 4 cups low sodium chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp low sodium soy sauce
  • 2 chicken fillets
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp chopped parsley more for serving

Instructions
 

  • Get all the prep done before you start cooking: slice the mushrooms, mince the garlic, finely chop the onion, peel and thinly slice the carrots. Chop the parsley.
  • Heat oil over medium low in a large pot. Add carrot, onion and garlic. Cook until soft and fragrant, about 3 minutes.
  • Increase heat to medium high and add mushrooms. Cook until they release the moisture and start to brown. Stir in pepper, paprika, thyme and rosemary. Add the rice and stir to combine.
  • Pour in chicken broth, bring to a boil. Add soy sauce and chicken fillets. Cover the pot and lower the heat. Simmer for 15 minutes.
  • When ready, remove the chicken fillets and place onto a clean plate. Add cream and parsley. Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes.
  • In the meantime, shred the chicken using two forks. Hold a fork in each hand, and use them to pull the meat apart. Return chicken to the pot. Taste, and adjust salt. Serve!
