Wild Rice with Cranberries and Caramelized Onions

2 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup brown rice
1/2 cup wild rice
3 tablespoons butter or margarine
3 medium onions, sliced in thin wedges
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 cup Ocean Spray. Craisins. Original Sweetened Dried Cranberries
1/2 teaspoon finely grated orange zest

Combine chicken broth and both rices in a medium saucepan. Bring to a
boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer 45
minutes or until rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add
onions and brown sugar. Cook 6 minutes or until liquid is absorbed and
onions are soft and translucent. Reduce heat to low. Slowly cook
onions, stirring often for 25 minutes or until they are caramel color.

Cover and cook over low heat for 10 minutes or until cranberries
swell. Gently fold cranberry mixture and orange zest into cooked rice.
