Roast Stuffed Pheasant is a tasty and succulent dish that combines the flavor of pheasant meat with the richness of bacon, smoked lard, and truffle fillings. The preparation takes some time, but the final result is definitely rewarding. This dish is particularly appreciated during holidays or for special occasions.
The pheasant must be well-aged and should only be plucked at the time of cooking
Prefer the female pheasant over the male as it has more tender meat
Chop the bird's liver, smoked lard, parsley, and if possible, a bit of truffle
Salt and pepper
Fill the pheasant with this stuffing, sew the openings, cover the breast with slices of bacon, securing it with a few turns of white kitchen string
Salt and pepper
In a pan, heat a knob of butter, place the pheasant in it, and cook for 45 minutes
After 20 minutes, remove the bacon so the meat can brown
Fifteen minutes before the end of cooking, add two tablespoons of cream to make the sauce more delicate and creamy
Accompanying wines: Valtellina Superiore Sassella DOC, Bolgheri Rosso DOC, Aglianico Del Vulture “Riserva” DOC
