Ingredients

  • 16 cups chicken broth
  • 6 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 pounds cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon thyme
  • 4 tablespoons butter, divided

Directions

  1. In a large stockpot, bring the chicken broth to a simmer.
  2. Separately, heat a 6 Quart Enameled Dutch Oven over medium heat and add olive oil, 4 cloves of garlic, and onions. Sauté until tender, 6-8 minutes. 
  3. Add uncooked rice to the mixture in the Dutch Oven and stir for 1 minute. Add 1 cup of wine and stir until the liquid has absorbed.
