Method
- Cook wild rice according to package directions; drain.
- Meanwhile, cook bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat 7 to 8 minutes or until crisp; drain on paper towels, reserving 1 Tbsp. drippings in skillet. Chop bacon.
- Saute fennel bulb and onion in hot drippings over medium-high heat 5 minutes or until softened. Add garlic; saute 1 minute. Add broth and next 3 ingredients; bring to a boil.
