STUFFED QUAIL WITH WHITE WINE SAUCE (((VERY EASY)))
This is a VERY EASY recipe. You can purchase quail in a specialty gourmet store, such as Wild Oats, etc.. I serve 2 quails per person, because they are so small. I usually serve either over a bed of rice or over Romaine lettuce.

SHRIMP AND ANDOUILLE STUFFED QUAIL WITH SPICY WHITE WINE SAUCE
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Melt butter in a saute pan over medium heat and cook celery, onion, thyme and garlic until wilted. Toss in shrimp and cook for 3 minutes. Add sausage to the pan, then stock. Place bread cubes in a bowl and pour the shrimp mixture over. Stir to completely moisten the bread, then add the green onions, parsley, and season with salt, pepper, and hot sauce, to taste. Let stuffing cool and then divide into 8 portions. Wrap 1 quail around each portion, using toothpicks to secure the back. Rub each quail with a little butter and season with salt and pepper. Place quail on baking sheet (not too close together) and roast for 12 to 15 minutes until golden brown and firm, but not dry. To serve, place 2 quails on each of 4 dinner plates and spoon sauce over top.
- Place shallots, white wine, broth, and hot sauce in a small pot and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced to about 3 tablespoons and then whisk in butter, 1 tablespoon at a time. Finish with a squeeze of lemon and a pinch of salt, if necessary. Spoon sauce over quail and serve.
STUFFED QUAIL
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Place the bread on a rimmed baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil and salt. Toast for 5 to 8 minutes, until crisp. Transfer to a large bowl.
- In a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat, heat the butter until it's melted and foamy. Add the onion, carrot, celery and garlic and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in the parsley, sage and chicken stock. Season with salt and pepper. Add the toasted bread and toss to combine. If you need more liquid for the bread, add more chicken stock 1/4 cup at a time. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool to room temperature
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Once the stuffing is cool, wear kitchen rubber gloves to stuff the cavity of the quails with about 1 cup of stuffing per quail. Place the remaining stuffing on the bottom of a roasting pan or large cast-iron skillet. Season the quail with salt and pepper and rest on top of the stuffing. Roast the quail for 15 to 20 minutes or until juices run clear when you pierce the skin. Serve right away.

Steps:
- Wipe the quail dry with paper towels and set aside.
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Using a frying pan that can go into the oven and on top of the stove (preferably cast iron) soften the shallot in the butter. Add shallots to a bowl with the mushrooms, breadcrumbs, parsley, tarragon, salt and pepper. Mix well and moisten with a little of the white wine. Stuff the mixture into the bird cavities.
- Heat the oil in the skillet. Add the stuffed quail, breast down and brown lightly. Add the remaining wine and the garlic cloves. Cover and bake in the oven for 15 minutes. Turn the quail breast up, turn up the heat to 400 and continue cooking for five to 10 minutes or until the quail are cooked.
- Remove the quail to a heated platter. Bring the sauce in the skillet to a boil over high heat and reduce by about a third. Remove the garlic cloves and season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the quail, sprinkle with almonds and serve.
