Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  2. In a large bowl, drizzle the chicken with olive oil and season with a little bit of salt and pepper to taste. Add the Parmesan, garlic, thyme, rosemary, and sage. Toss to coat. Set aside.
  3. In a greased 9 x 13-inch baking dish, combine the uncooked wild rice, celery, carrots, onion, mushrooms, and cranberries. Sprinkle both of the seasoning packets from the rice over top. Pour the broth into the dish. Stir gently. Top with the butter. Arrange the chicken over the rice and vegetables. Cover tightly with foil or a lid and bake for 45 minutes.
  4. Remove the cover and bake for another 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through (an internal temperature of 165°F). If the rice is still hard, add extra water if necessary and continue cooking for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the rice is tender.
  5. Let the dish rest for at least 5-10 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork, garnish with toasted pecans and chopped fresh herbs, and serve.
