Apricot Cranberry Wild Rice

Adapted from Smithfield.com Pork Crown Roast Recipe

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons butter
1 large shallot
2 cups uncooked quick-cooking wild rice blend
3 cups chicken stock
˝ cup chopped dried apricots
˝ cup chopped dried cranberries
˝ cup chopped pecans

In a medium sauce pan, sauté the shallot in butter until tender.  Add wild rice and chicken stock.  Stir to moisten the rice and bring to a boil, stirring only once.  Cover with a tightly fitting lid; reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.  Remove from heat and let stand 10 minutes with the cover on.  Gently fold in dried apricots, dried cranberries, and pecan, being careful not to stir too much.
