We live in an area with many Southern plantations, and quail are abundant. I cook this tasty dish with rich mushroom gravy often when my two boys are home. They think it makes a great meal. -Jean Williams, Hurtsboro, Alabama Ingredients:
3/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour, divided |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
6 quail (1/3 to 1/2 pound each) |
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced |
2 cups chicken broth |
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme or 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
hot cooked noodles, optional |
Directions:
1. Combine 1/2 cup flour, salt and pepper; coat each quail. Melt butter in skillet; brown the quail. Transfer to an ungreased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish. In the pan drippings, saute the mushrooms until tender. Add remaining flour and stir to make a smooth paste. Add broth and thyme, stirring constantly. Bring to a boil; boil for 1 minute or until thickened. Pour over the quail. Cover and bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until tender and juices run clear. Serve over noodles if desired.
