Ingredients
- 4 c chicken stock
- 2 c water
- 1/2 c uncooked wild rice
- 1/2 c green onion, minced (about 3 or 4)
- 1 stick butter
- 3/4 c flour

Directions
- In a large pot, add the broth, water, rice and green onion. Simmer until the rice is tender, about 40 minutes. Do not drain the extra broth.
- In a large skillet, melt down the butter.
- Whisk in the flour, salt, pepper and additional seasoning if you wish.
- Cook until the mixture is golden and smooth.
- Whisking constantly, stir in the half and half.
- Once this mix has thickened, stir it into the rice mix.
- Add the bacon, cooked chicken, bell pepper and sherry.
- Simmer for 30 minutes or so until the flavors blend.
- Do not boil or a skin will form.
