Time 5h10m

Yield Four servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 cup Dijon mustard
1 rabbit, about 3 1/2 pounds, cut in 6 or 7 pieces
2 strips bacon, diced
1 onion, peeled and minced
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 cups dry white wine
3 cups chicken broth, homemade or low-sodium canned
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon rosemary
1 bay leaf
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon salt, plus more to taste
Freshly ground pepper to taste
2 tablespoons minced parsley

Steps:

  • Rub the mustard all over the rabbit. Let stand for 3 hours. About 15 minutes before rabbit is ready, saute the bacon in a large, deep skillet until crisp. Remove bacon with a slotted spoon. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Wipe the mustard off of the rabbit. Toss with the flour. Add the butter to the pan. Working in 2 batches, saute rabbit pieces until golden on both sides, about 8 minutes for each batch. Remove rabbit from pan and set aside.
  • Pour the wine into the pan. Over medium-high heat, simmer while scraping up browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the chicken broth, thyme, rosemary and bay leaf. Add the rabbit. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat so that liquid barely simmers. Cook until rabbit is tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes, skimming top as necessary.
  • Remove rabbit from pan. Increase heat. Simmer sauce until thickened, about 20 minutes. Stir in cream. Simmer for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in salt and pepper. Remove bay leaf. Return rabbit to the pan. Stir in parsley. Serve with noodles.
