Braised Dove and Wild Rice

Ingredients:

10 dove breasts
2/3-cup of packaged wild rice
1/2-pound of mushrooms
4 minced shallots or scallions
1 chopped celery stalk
1-1/2 cups of chicken broth
juice of half a lemon
3 tablespoons of butter
1/2 teaspoon of tarragon
1/2 cup of dry vermouth or white wine
salt and pepper

Directions:
Skin and clean the dove breasts. Rub each breast with lemon juice, then salt and pepper to taste.

Saute the shallots or scallions, celery, and mushrooms lightly in the butter.

Place rice on the bottom of a casserole dish. Lay in the dove breasts and add the rest of the ingredients.

Cover and bake at 350 degrees for 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours.

Excellent with a red Rhone, Merlot, or Zinfandel, or a crisp, dry Sauvignon Blanc.
