Categories: Entree Game
Yield: 6 Servings

2 Rabbits; cut in serving pieces
3tbTarragon mustard (see below)
2tbGarlic; minced
1/3cParsley; minced
  Salt
3tbRed wine vinegar
1cChicken broth
3/4cHeavy cream
  Freshly ground pepper
1tbTo 2 tbsp parsley; chopped
TARRAGON MUSTARD
  Use commercial, or mix:
3tbDijon mustard
1/2tsDried tarragon

If Tarragon Mustard is not available, use a Dijon mustard to which you add 1/2 teaspoon of dried tarragon per 3 tablespoons mustard.

Coat the rabbit pieces with the mustard. Mix the minced garlic and minced parsley together with a little salt, and sprinkle half over the rabbit.

: Combine the vinegar and broth and pour into a large baking dish. Trickle the remaining garlic and minced parsley over, then put the rabbit pieces on top.

Bring to a boil, then cover the baking dish and bake in a preheated 350 F degree oven for an hour. Check after 45 minutes to see if tender and turn the pieces of rabbit. When tender throughout, remove rabbit and keep warm.

: Pour the cream into the juices in the casserole and boil to reduce the liquid by half or more - it should have the consistency of a light cream sauce.

: Salt and pepper the rabbit pieces and return them to the casserole. Spoon sauce over and taste to correct seasoning if necessary. Sprinkle chopped parsley on top and serve.
