Pheasant in Gravy image

Baked wild bird is really moist cooked in gravy, we like it with cooked rice spooning the gravy over the Rice or Mashed potatoes. I have another recipe here in the scraps some where, it uses a lot more ingredients but better. I will post it asap, but I think it is in the shed for the winter with my Italian recipes.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 breast pieces, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
6 pheasants or 6 quail, breast cut in half
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom & garlic soup
1 1/2 cups water (yes one can water)
1 cup chicken broth

Steps:

  • In large skillet or dutch oven (medium) heat oil and butter if you do not have olive oil use what is in the cupboard. Oil keeps the butter from burning.
  • Tear of the top third, of the brown paper bag you got the wine out of.
  • You might as well pour a glass of the wine now, before your hands get flour on them.
  • Place flour, salt & pepper in the brown paper bag, close top & shake.
  • Add breast one at a time shake, and place in pan repeat until done.
  • Brown breast on both sides.
  • Take sip of Wine & Turn oven on to 350.
  • Placed breast into a greased oven proof dish to make single layer.
  • Add onions to pan & cook until translucent, sprinkle on breast.
  • Sip Wine, In a different bowl mix up soup, water and chicken broth.
  • Bake uncovered for 45-50 minute
  • I have added poutry seasong to this.
  • If no Garlic Cream of Mushroom just use regular C.of Mushroom.
  • I have not had stock so I used chicken bouillon cubes. Read the box for amounts.
  • I have, deglazed pan with pan with white wine, 1/2 cup and reduce water by this amount of wine, and add pan drippings to the soup broth mix.
  • For a nice presentation sprinkle the top with 1 can ( 2.8 oz) french fried onions, add after 40 minute.
  • Cook until breast juices run clear.
  • prep time includes browning meat & onions.
