In a small pot, combine the dry wild rice blend with 0.75 cups water and a portion of the sea salt; bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes.
While the rice cooks, season the raw chicken breast on both sides with the remaining sea salt and the black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chicken for 5-6 minutes per side until cooked through, then remove and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the ghee and sauté the raw cremini mushrooms and raw shallots until the mushrooms are golden and tender.
Add the minced garlic and fresh thyme to the skillet, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Whisk the arrowroot powder into the chicken broth until smooth, then pour the mixture into the skillet with the mushrooms.
Simmer the gravy for 2-3 minutes until thickened and glossy, then slice the chicken and serve it over the wild rice with the gravy poured over the top.
