Preparation
- STEP 1 OF 15
Start by finely chopping peeled garlic and rosemary leaves

Brown the rabbit in oil in a large pan
- STEP 3 OF 15
I recommend doing this over medium heat but achieving a good level of browning
- STEP 4 OF 15
When almost done, add the chopped mixture and continue for a few minutes, possibly lowering the heat and turning the pieces of meat several times
- STEP 5 OF 15
Try not to burn the garlic
- STEP 6 OF 15
Add the wine and let it evaporate
- STEP 7 OF 15
Add the tomato paste diluted with a little water (2-3 tablespoons) and finish cooking
- STEP 8 OF 15
Keep in mind that rabbit tends to remain tougher than chicken; so cook slowly over low heat with the lid on
- STEP 9 OF 15
If necessary, occasionally add a tablespoon of hot water to prevent it from drying out too much
- STEP 10 OF 15
After about 45 minutes, check the meat's tenderness with a fork
- STEP 11 OF 15
Evaporate the excess liquid by removing the lid and increasing the heat
- STEP 12 OF 15
Season with salt and finish with a bit of black pepper
- STEP 13 OF 15
Don't be afraid of the large amount of garlic
- STEP 14 OF 15
If everything goes well, you won't even notice it, and you can pour the resulting sauce over the meat arranged on the serving plate
- STEP 15 OF 15
If you succeed in this, you'll be ready for fried eggs too
