Crock Pot Rabbit And Dumplings Recipes

CROCK POT RABBIT STEW

Steps:

• Grind pepper over the rabbit and place in the crock pot.
• Combine all other ingredients EXCEPT FLOUR in a large bowl, mix well and pour over the rabbit.
• Cover and cook on low for 6 hours for a small rabbit, or up to 8 hours for a large rabbit. Actually cook for half an hour less as below.
• Thirty minutes before ready blend flour with 1/2 cup of water until it is a smooth paste, add to the pot and stir well to thicken and continue cooking covered for a further 30 minutes.
• Give it a good stir and allow to rest 10-15 minutes before serving.
• At this point the rabbit should be so tender that you can tear pieces off with a fork to serve rather than cut. Just scoop it all out onto a plate.
• You'll end up with bones in the dish so eat much like you would a fish dish being careful for bones. Serve along with a nice crusty roll to soak up the juices.

RABBIT AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add rabbits and sear. Add mirepoix, and caramelize lightly. Deglaze the pan with the wine. Add stock and simmer until rabbit is tender. Cool and pick the meat from the bones. Reserve the juice.
• Sear vegetables in some butter, about 1/4 stick until lightly browned. Add the herbs and garlic and wine. Reduce au sec (until pan is almost dry). Add 1/2 stick butter and stir to melt without breaking. Stir in the flour until incorporated. Gradually stir in reserved juice.
• Cook about 30 minutes until roux taste is gone. Add picked rabbit meat and season, to taste, with salt, pepper, hot sauce, Worcestershire sauce and dried thyme.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Mix all dry ingredients. Mix all wet ingredients. Mix the 2 together stirring as little as possible.
• Pour the hot stew in a large casserole dish and drop golf ball size dumplings all over the top.
• Bake in preheated oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until bubbling around the edges and the dumplings have become golden brown on top.

JAMIE OLIVER'S RABBIT STEW WITH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• To make the dumplings, rub together the flour, butter, and tarragon with a dash of salt and pepper. Stir in enough milk to give you an unsticky, stiff dough. Knead together, then roll into a large snake. Cut into 18 equal sized pieces and roll into balls. Place on a sheet, and sprinkle nutmeg over the top. Move the tray to the fridge.
• Heat a deep, ovenproof dish about a foot in diameter with a bit of olive oil and the knob of butter in the bottom, over medium-high heat. Coat the rabbit pieces in flour and shake off any excess. Put half the rabbit pieces in the pot and cook about 5 minutes until golden all over. Take those pieces out and cook the other pieces. Once they're all cooked, add the first pieces back, as well as a big pinch of salt and pepper and the bacon. Cook until the bacon has crisped. Add the rosemary, mushrooms and onions and fry another ten minutes.
• Mix in a tablespoon of flour then pour in the chicken stock and beer. Cover and simmer for half an hour.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Place the dumplings on top of the stew, about half an inch apart. Drizzle them with olive oil and bake for 45 minutes.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Place the chicken, butter, soup, and onion in a slow cooker, and fill with enough water to cover.
• Cover, and cook for 5 to 6 hours on High. About 30 minutes before serving, place the torn biscuit dough in the slow cooker. Cook until the dough is no longer raw in the center.
