When in frustration you throw out the cookbooks and decide to wing it with dinner, it is always a pleasant surprise when it all turns out to be a delicious meal. Finding recipes for cooking wild game isn’t as easy as searching for the common chicken or turkey recipes. Wild birds are typically smaller in size, the flavors can be richer, and sometimes I feel like I’m speaking another language when I’m asking about pheasant, duck, or other game bird recipes.
Danny takes Elmer out a few times each year to hunt, and they’ll bring back a handful of birds over the season. We usually make a hunters soup with our game birds, so for this recipe I cooked the birds in a way that is complementary to the soup. Whatever is leftover will go straight to the soup recipe. I can just pull out the bones, leave everything else in the pot, and already be halfway finished with our soup recipe for the next day. The richness of the flavor in this recipe made it hard to resist sneaking a few onions out of the pan to snack on, as I cleaned up dinner. I just love a good rich red wine flavor in my winter meats. I’ll try to get the hunter soup recipe up soon because it is such a great winter soup and overflowing with flavor.
