This looks interesting. I like wild rice, but never thought of incorporating it into an Asian dish before. It's an intriguing blend of flavors and I'm looking forward to giving this a try sometime soon. It's an unusual side dish and I'm curious as to what meats or fish it would work well with. The recipe does have a error in the ingredient list. In the ingredient list the 1/4 cup of San J Asian BBQ sauce is repeated. The actual recipe calls for just one 1/4 cup of the sauce.
