Rec: Wild Rice Micro Chicken

1 teaspoon salt
2 cups water
1 cup uncooked white rice
1/2 (10.75 oz) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
1/2 (1 oz) package dry onion soup mix
1/2 (6 oz) package wild rice
1/2 (4.5 oz) can sliced mushrooms
1 skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into bite size pieces


In a medium saucepan add salt to water and bring to a boil.
Add uncooked rice and parboil for 10 minutes (to parboil
is to partially cook by boiling briefly in water). Meanwhile,
prepare wild rice according to package directions (do NOT
drain); set aside. In a lightly greased (Pam'd) 9x13 inch
baking dish combine the cream of mushroom soup and
dry onion soup mix. Slowly stir in the parboiled rice and
cooked wild rice (with liquids). Add the mushrooms and
chicken pieces, mix all together and spread evenly in
baking dish. (If desired, cover and store in refrigerator at
this point.) Microwave on HIGH for 10 to 15 minutes,
stirring every 5 minutes. Cook until chicken is no longer
pink and rice is cooked through.
