Nowadays, there is an abundance of foods that in the past could only be found during certain times of the year or, in the case of game animals, were not easily available in supermarkets or butcher shops in cities. All of that has changed, and today it is possible to purchase any type of ingredient to prepare dishes ranging from the simplest to the most exotic, including recipes with rabbit, like the one we are...
Chefadora AI has the answer - timers, swaps, step-by-step help.
Wash and dry the rabbit, then cut it into medium-sized pieces.
Season the rabbit pieces with salt and pepper. In a casserole, heat a little oil and brown the rabbit pieces on all sides.
Once the rabbit pieces are browned on both sides, remove them from the casserole. In the same oil, sauté the chopped leek, then add the rabbit back into the casserole, covering it with the sherry wine.
Dissolve the flour in the broth and add it to the preparation.
Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and add the bay leaf.
Cook with the casserole covered until the rabbit pieces are tender. If necessary during cooking, add a little more broth or water.
For a richer flavor, marinate the rabbit in sherry wine for a few hours before cooking.
Serve the dish with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.
If you prefer a thicker sauce, let it simmer uncovered for a few minutes at the end.
Can I use a different type of wine instead of sherry?
Yes, you can substitute sherry with a dry white wine, but the flavor profile will be slightly different.
How do I know when the rabbit is fully cooked?
The rabbit is fully cooked when the meat is tender and easily pulls away from the bone.
Can I use chicken instead of rabbit?
Yes, chicken can be used as a substitute, but the flavor will differ as rabbit has a unique taste.
What type of broth should I use?
You can use chicken or vegetable broth, depending on your preference.
Can I make this dish ahead of time?
Yes, this dish can be made ahead and reheated. The flavors often deepen when reheated.
