Rabbit with cream and mushrooms

With this recipe, the rabbit’s meat becomes so tender that it melts in your mouth. Browning the meat (Maillard reaction) is very important, because it intensifies meat flavors.

Rabbit has a lean meat so to balance that, better to marinade the rabbit a night before in extra virgin olive oil, herbs, black pepper, garlic. (or any spices of your choice)

– Remove the pot from the oven to the stove, add cream & chopped parsley, give it a stir and after 2-3 minutes it’s ready!


Notes

  • In a dutch oven rabbit cooks perfectly in just 1 hour. In a normal pot you’ll need more time.
  • In case you don’t want to use the oven, this recipe works perfectly on the stove. First cook rabbit for 1 hour then add mushrooms and cook another 30 minutes.
