See below ingredients and instructions of the recipe
2 pheasants, about 2 1/2 lb ea
2 oranges; halved
1/4 c olive oil
1 salt to taste
1 pepper to taste
8 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
4 garlic cloves; peeled and
-bruised
2 bay leaves
12 sl bacon
1/2 c defatted chicken broth
1/4 c tawny port
1 autumn pear salsa (see
-separate rec; ipe)
When cooking pheasant or any wild game birds, I always squeeze an orange or
two in the cavity and on the outside to refresh the bird before cooking. As
the meat is very lean, it's necessary to cover the breast with bacon to add
extra moisture during roasting. Basting with liquid from the pan also is
essential. - Shiela Lukins
1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Rinse the pheasants, cleaning the cavities well. Remove any excess fat.
Pat dry.
3. Squeeze the oranges all over the birds and inside the cavities. Brush
with olive oil and sprinkle inside and out with salt and pepper. Place 4
sprigs of parsley, 2 cloves of garlic and a bay leaf in each cavity.
4. Place the birds in a shallow roasting pan to fit. Arrange 6 slices of
bacon over each pheasant. Add the chicken broth and the port to the pan.
5. Bake for 1 1/2 hours (remove the bacon after an hour), basting two or
three times. Then bake 15-20 minutes longer or until the breasts are brown
and the birds are cooked through. (The juices should run clear when the
thickest part of the thigh is tested with the tip of a knife.) Let rest 10
minutes. Carve and serve with Autumn Pear Salsa.
