- 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
- 1 medium fennel bulb, cored and chopped (1 cup)
- 1 medium onion, chopped (1/2 cup)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 3/4 cup uncooked arborio or long grain white rice
- 2 14 ounce can quartered artichoke hearts, drained
- 2 medium carrots, shredded (1 cup)
- 2 teaspoons snipped fresh thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/3 cup dry white wine or chicken broth
- 1/2 cup panko (Japanese-style bread crumbs)
- 1/4 cup finely shredded Asiago cheese or Parmesan cheese (1 ounce)
- 1/2 teaspoon finely shredded lemon peel
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In an extra-large skillet, cook sausage, fennel, onion, and garlic over medium-high heat until sausage is brown and vegetables are tender. Drain off fat. Add rice; cook and stir for 1 minute.
2. Add artichoke hearts, carrots, thyme, and pepper. Stir in broth and wine. Bring just to boiling. Transfer mixture to an ungreased 2-1/2-quart casserole. Bake, covered, about 1 hour or until rice is tender, stirring once halfway through baking.
3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine panko, cheese, and lemon peel; stir in melted butter. Sprinkle over sausage mixture. Bake, uncovered, about 10 minutes more or until mixture is heated through and crumbs are lightly browned. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving. Makes 6 to 8 servings.
