4 servings, about 1 3/4 cups each
Total Time: 35 minutes

Ingredients

1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups sliced mushrooms, (about 4 ounces)
3/4 cup chopped celery
3/4 cup chopped carrots
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt substitute
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
4 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 cup quick-cooking or instant wild rice,
3 cups cubed or shredded cooked turkey (could also use chicken or both)
1/2 cup reduced-fat sour cream
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

Preparation

Heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add mushrooms, celery, carrots and shallots and cook, stirring, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add flour, salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes more.
Add broth and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits. Add rice and reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and cook until the rice is tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in turkey (or chicken), sour cream and parsley and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes more.
