(Shared recipe submitted by Judy Knight.)
Serves 4
Boil rice in 2-1/2 cups salted water for 30 minutes. Drain of most of water. Add chicken broth and continue to simmer until tender, about 20 to 30 more minutes.
Meanwhile, sauté celery and onion in butter for 5 minutes. Add apple and pecans to celery and onion. Sauté 5 more minutes. They need to stay slightly crisp.
Add above to rice. Stir in cayenne and cracked pepper. Simmer 5 more minutes. (I also like to add 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. This is optional.) Let set for a few minutes prior to serving. Serve with pork or fowl.
