From Bon Appetit Magazine Ingredients:
8 ounces bacon, chopped |
2 (1 1/2-1 3/4 lb) rabbits, thawed if frozen, each cut into 8 pieces or 3 1/2 lbs chicken thighs |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 large red onion, chopped |
2 carrots, peeled, chopped |
2 celery ribs, chopped |
6 garlic cloves, chopped |
6 large fresh thyme sprigs |
2 bay leaves |
2 cups dry red wine |
3 cups low sodium chicken broth |
2 cups canned crushed tomatoes in puree |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350°F Sauté bacon in wide ovenproof pot over medium heat until crisp. Transfer bacon to paper towels.
2. Sprinkle rabbit with salt and pepper. Increase heat to medium-high. Working in batches, add rabbit to pot and sauté until browned, turning often, about 10 minutes per batch. Transfer to large bowl. Add 1 tablespoon butter to pot; add onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté until vegetables begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, thyme, and bay leaves; stir 1 minute. Return rabbit and bacon to pot. Add wine; simmer 5 minutes. Stir in broth and tomatoes; bring to boil. Cover pot tightly. Transfer to oven and cook rabbit until very tender, about 1 hour 15 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Divide among plates; spoon grits alongside.
3. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
