Pleasant Pheasant
I made this one up, and my husband says, "You need to put this one in your online recipe stuff". Well, that's a very nice compliment from him, so here it goes! It can be modified with your favorite marinade, to create a different favor to compliment any meal. We serve this over white rice. Time listed does not include marinating time.

ingredients
- 4 boneless skinless pheasant breasts
-
Marinade (substitute your favorite if preferred)
- 1⁄4 cup soy sauce
- 2 garlic cloves, sliced
- 1⁄4 cup onion, diced
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1⁄4 cup rice vinegar
-
Remaining Ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup flour
- 2 -4 tablespoons butter
- 1⁄2 - 1 cup chicken broth
- 1⁄4 cup cilantro
directions
- Marinate the pheasant breasts over night (or for as long as possible) in your favorite marinade, or mix together the soy sauce, garlic, onion, honey and vinegar for a yummy asian-inspired marinade.
- Remove pheasants from marinade, and coat in flour. We do not rinse off marinade, or allow to drip off, so that the flour makes a nice coating on the pheasant.
- Heat a frying pan with butter, and place coated pheasant in pan.
- Allow to brown on each side, then add 1/4 cup of chicken broth, or enough to create some liquid on the bottom. Add cilantro.
- Cover and allow pheasant to cook for 4-6 minutes per side, until cooked through. Don't let all the chicken broth cook off, or it could burn. Add more if necessary.
- Once done, take pheasant out of pan, and add chicken broth, a little at a time, scraping the bottom of the pan to create a gravy.
- Serve with rice, or noodles.
-
Variations:
- instead of chicken broth, use chicken noodle soup and some water! Or,
- use your favorite marinate. Or,
- after browning, and adding liquid (or soup with some water), put it in a 350 degree oven for 20-30 minutes - then proceed as directed.

This is excellent! I made it with (dare I say) road kill pheasant - saw it hit by a car, turned around and picked it up and did it up in this recipe using just the breasts. My husband raved about it! I had no cilantro, so added some grated ginger and served it over rice. We licked the platter clean! Quite simple, yet beautiful in presentation and with a complexity of flavor that belies the simple preparation! My compliments to you, Haversac!Reply
