Wild Rice with Chili & Olives

Contributed by: Melinda

Use whatever type of fresh red chili pepper you find and add seeds or not, depending on the heat level you want. I like kalamata olives, but green would look and taste delicious as well.

1 cup wild rice, rinsed
2 1/4 cups water
1/2 tsp kosher salt
Olive oil
1/2 medium onion, finely minced (or 1 shallot)
1 or more fresh red chili peppers (to taste)
1/2 cup chopped olives
Fresh chopped parsley

Heat water to boiling, add salt and rice, stir and return to boil
Cover and simmer for 40-55 minutes, until rice is just burst and still has a bite
Drain any remaining liquid (the rice can be set aside at this point until ready to continue)
Heat olive oil in a skillet
Add onion and cook over medium until translucent
Add rice, chili pepper and olives
Sauté for several minutes until rice, chili and olives are warmed through - serve immediately garnished with parsley
