Ingredients

2 Tablespoons butter, divided
2 cups chopped, peeled and cored McIntosh apples
1 leek, tender white and green part only, cut in half lengthwise and then sliced
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups vegetable or gf Chicken Stock
1 cup water
1 cup apple cider
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 bay leaf
2 cups uncooked wild rice & basmati mixture
1/3 cup pine nuts, toasted
1 Tablespoon Italian parsley, chopped
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Directions

Melt 1 tablespoon unsalted butter in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add apples; saute for about 5-7 minutes or until just tender and lightly browned. Transfer apples to a plate and set aside.

Reduce the heat to medium and melt the remaining tablespoon of butter in the pan. Add the leeks and cook for about 5 minutes or until tender. Add the garlic; saute for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add the broth, water, apple cider, thyme and bay leaf and bring to a boil. Stir in the rice; cover and reduce heat and simmer for 55 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed. (If at this time the rice is done but their is still too much liquid, drain off excess liquid.) Stir in the apple, pine nuts, Italian parsley and season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Serve.
