Hunterss Rabbit Stew Recipes

HUNTER'S RABBIT

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• To a large warmed skillet over medium heat, add 1/4 cup of olive oil. Sprinkle the rabbit with salt and pepper, to taste. Add the rabbit to the hot oil and brown on both sides. Remove the rabbit to a medium-size casserole dish.
• In that same skillet, over medium heat, add more olive oil. Add the mushrooms and shallots and saute for about 2 minutes. Transfer the mushroom mixture to the casserole. Sprinkle the flour, thyme, parsley and the bay leaf over the rabbit and stir in the tomato sauce, wine, and the beef broth. You may add a pinch more of salt and pepper if you wish. Cover with foil and put in the oven to bake until the rabbit is tender, stirring every hour, about 2 to 3 hours. Rabbit meat should pull off easily from the bone with a fork. Remove from the oven and serve.

HUNTERS'S RABBIT STEW

Steps:

• Everything is cooked on LOW heat (~1/3 of max). 1. Clean and roughly chop the garlic. 2. Place a large stew pot on low heat and add olive oil (to cover the bottom of the pot), chopped garlic, and small amount (~1/4tsp) of finely chopped rosemary, then slowly heat until the garlic yellows. (~10min) 3. Add the rabbit pieces, mix and cover, allowing them to release their own juices. Mix intermittently to avoid burning. 4. Once the rabbit meat has released its own juices (~15-30min cooking), add bay leaves, small amount of salt (better to add more at end as the wine will also make it slightly salty), tomato paste, the remaining rosemary and Vegeta. Mix and cover. 5. Once the meat juices have almost fully reduced, add red wine to ~85% of the level of rabbit pieces and allow to reduce. Mix and cover. Mix intermittently to avoid burning. Cooking should take ~1.5 hours once the rabbit is covered with wine. If necessary, season with salt and pepper just before completion of cooking. Serve warm with gnocchi.

SPANISH RABBIT STEW HUNTER-STYLE RECIPE - (3.7/5)

Steps:

• Peel and chop the onion and garlic. Cut the ham into small pieces and set aside. Rinse and cut tomato into small cubes. Rinse all dirt off mushrooms, then trim stems and slice. Chop 2 sprigs of parsley and set apart. Remove rabbit from packaging. Rinse and pat dry. Cut rabbit into 8-10 pieces. Salt and pepper all sides. In a large, heavy-bottomed frying pan, heat 3-4 tbsp olive oil on medium. When hot, sauté onion and garlic. When soft, add the ham cubes. When onion is translucent, remove onion, garlic and ham from pan with a slotted spatula and set aside on plate for later, reserving the oil. Add some olive oil to the same pan and brown the rabbit on both sides. Remove from frying pan. Pour any oil left in frying pan into a large casserole or stew pot. Place rabbit and onion mixture into pot and mix. Add chopped parsley and dried thyme to pot and stir. Place on medium heat. Add the cognac, white wine and water to rabbit and mix. Simmer uncovered for approximately 30 minutes and add chopped mushrooms after 15 minutes. Stir in mushrooms and continue to simmer for another 15 minutes. If necessary, add a bit more water while simmering. Serve with home-fried potatoes or rice. Spanish stews or casseroles such as this are traditionally served with rustic bread, especially in Old Castilla where this regional recipe originates.
