Pheasant Breasts Braised in Cider

 

Ingredients

4 x pheasant breasts (young hen breasts if possible as they won t be so tough)

4 large rashers, lightly smoked bacon

500ml/17fl oz dry cider

5 shallots

butter

1 tsp caster sugar

30g/1oz plain flour

100ml/7tbsp full fat crème fraîche

 

 

 

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.

2. Butter the pheasant breasts and then wrap in the bacon. Place in an ovenproof dish (so that they aren t too cramped together) and then pop in the oven for 25 minutes.

3. After 25 minutes reduce the oven temperature to 170C/325F/Gas 3, pour 250ml/8 fl oz of the cider over the pheasant breasts, cover with a lid or tin foil, and return to the oven for another 60 minutes.

4. Towards the ending of the cooking time for the pheasants, pour the remaining cider into a saucepan and reduce by about half.

5. Thinly slice the shallots and cook very slowly in a little butter until soft. Then add the caster sugar and continue to cook until lightly caramelised. Remove off the heat until ready to finish the sauce.

6. Check the pheasant breasts during the cooking time to ensure that they do not dry out and add more cider if necessary.

7. To finish the sauce, add the flour to the shallots back on a gentle heat and mix together. You may need to add a little more butter at this stage if the shallots are very dry, but they shouldn t be. Now add the cider reduction and the crème fraîche and cook together over a low heat until the sauce starts to thicken.

8. Once ready to serve, slice each breast into about five slices and place on the plate still in the shape of the whole breast. Pour the sauce over the meat and accompany with rosti potatoes.

3. Mount five or six pieces of marinated meat on each skewer.

4. Cook on a lightly oiled heavy griddle pan or hotplate (or even on a barbecue if the weather permits) turning regularly until nicely browned (about 10 minutes). Serve with peanut sauce and a fresh green salad with boiled rice if you want to turn it from a starter into a supper.

5. To make the peanut sacue, sweat the onion and the garlic in the oil until soft and lightly browned. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix well.

6. Allow to bubble and thicken in the pan. Taste and adjust by adding more lime juice, chilli or soy, according to your preference. Add a little water to get a nice, pourable-but-only-just consistency

That sounds just divine, I am going to try it, simple but I bet gorgeous.

 

Thanks for that.

Pheasant breasts with an oat crust with wholegrain-mustard cream sauce.

 

Melt a tablespoon of redcurrant jelly and smear onto the breasts, then roll in seasoned oats. Heat a lump of butter in a pan and get it foaming, then whack the breasts in for ten mins, turning.

 

Chuck a tablespoon or so of wholegrain mustard in, and a good slosh of double cream and cook for another ten mins or so.

 

Quick n yummy.

pheasant pie,

two onions in the frying pan, with olive oil

add abour 400g of pheasant breast chopped,

add one leek chopped,

add half a orange pepper chopped,

add a few slices of chorizo,

let it all fry up and cook through,

then add allot of wine,

small amount of curry and chilli powder,

some salt and pepper,

chicken oxo stock cube! EDIT.. few nearly forgot a key ingredient.

then bisto untill pie filling consistancy is reached,

let everything cook together nicely in the frying pan stiring constantly,

then transfere from the frying pan into a pie dish,

when cool put a topping of that ready made just roll puff pastry,

check the consistancy of the gravy, if its a little too thick add some water which will help thinn it out whilst the pie cooks.

cover it and you can leave it sat around for as long as you want.

cook untill the pastry is risen and crispy on the top, brush with egg yolk proir to cooking to get a golden brown crust

i ate mine about two days later, so it obviously had time to work into the meat and everything,

i made this up and was surprised and impressed by the result it is extremely filling, and medium sized pie will feed three adults with chips and peas or anything else you want to have with it. It tastes very nice and the game taste isnt strong ( even my recently converted vegaterian sisters liked it..) result!

I have got to say that I tried this the other day and it was delicious, my wife who has refused to eat pheasant on almost every occasion that it has been offered it to her loved it and is looking forward to trying it again. Thaanks for posting it.

Thanks for this, I had some breasts given to me from doing my first days beating last week and did this with it but using mature cheddar instead of Stiliton and it was bloody lovely. The first time my wife has had Pheasant and she loved it so much she wants it for xmas now. Thanks again.
