1. Saute pheasants in butter 10 minutes.
2. Remove from skillet and saute mushrooms in butter remaining in skillet 10 minutes Return pheasant to skillet.

really enjoyed how the wine tenderized the pheasant! i cut the pheasant into strips as well and added more mushrooms and onions but that's only because i love them :-) GREAT recipe! thank you for sharing

I left the birds whole, did everything the same, but instead of lemon juice, I stuffed them with tangerines. YUM! Thanks for posting
