This recipe was amazing, it was my first time trying pheasant (my husband and hunting dogs brought it home) and I was extremely impressed. Another good hint--store wild pheasant in fridge in bag with a little bit of milk for 36 hours before cooking, the milk breaks down the proteins and makes the meat tender. I cooked it for only about 45 minutes and it was done, and it wasn't instantly clear to me that the skillet goes directly from the stove to the oven, I had to read it several times. So glad we decided to do this one, we'll be having pheasant as much as possible now!
