We all loved it and since then I have fixed it to good reviews from all the family except the grandsons (was probably a little to different for them) The taste is rich and the texture moist, My daughter changed it some as it was intended for a goose, rather than chicken and called for roasted chestnuts, but we prefer mushrooms. Great for that special dinner for friends or family.
Ingredients:
1 cup wild rice, cooked as per instructions
2 tablespoons butter, plus extra for coating chicken
1 onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 carrots, diced
2 tablespoons marjoram leaves, plus extra for coating chicken
2 tablespoons fresh sage, torn in pieces, plus extra for coating chicken
2 cups dry red wine
2 cups rye bread cubes, dried
1 cup portabella mushroom, diced
salt and pepper
1 egg
1 tablespoon caraway seed
1 cup chicken broth
Directions:
1. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
2. Add onion, garlic, carrot and herbs.
3. Sauté for 5 minutes, then add the wine.
4. Simmer for about 10 minutes to reduce the wine to a tight paste.

7. Scrape the skillet mixture into a large bowl, blend in the egg, caraway seed and 1 ladle full of chicken broth.
