• Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat; saute mushrooms until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
• Bring reserved chicken broth and wild rice to a boil in a large saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, about 45 minutes. Drain excess liquid, fluff rice with a fork, and cook uncovered 5 minutes more.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
