This was very yummy...the pheasant was nice and tender...I used just the breast meat...it did need salt...but that may be just a personal preference...there isn't a sauce...but the overall dish went very well with rice...I did cut the recipe in half for the two of us...this is a keeper...thanks for posting it...made it for "What's on the Menu??? tag game...=)
