Step 1

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat, and sauté onions until translucent and soft, about 5 minutes, remove onions and set aside. Add another tablespoon of oil, bring to medium heat, and add the mushrooms and celery until mushrooms are browned, about 10 minutes. Remove from pan and add to onions. Season with salt and pepper.
In the same pan, add the rice, broth, thyme, sage and bring to a boil, once boiling, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer for 25 minutes.
