Some of the ingredients:

Nice way to serve up some rabbit. Very savory stew. The onions and rabbit are from my farm. I buy my wild rice from the Red Lake Nation and highly recommend them.

Best wild rice

Looks good Ann, what else is in there and how long to you typically cook rabbit, no experience working with rabbit so am unfamiliar with cook times. Thanks

That does look really good, Ann. Thanks for the turn on to the rice link.

Good stuff, Ann. I'll share that link.

Jim,

I used rabbit that I pressure canned for this dish. I raise my own bunnies and pressure can most of the meat (I debone and then pack in jars) though I do have some in the freezer. Since it is pressure canned it is already cooked and tender. I dump the jar in when the rest of the ingredients are cooked, in this case, the rice which takes about 45 minutes to simmer.

I find rabbit to be a bit dry as a meat as there is no fat within the muscle fibers. A casserole or similar stew is perfect though for such.

Other ingredients include a boatload of minced garlic. There were a lot more fresh onions than in the photo. A couple of bay leaves, a pinch of thyme, some chili powder, black pepper, salt and a blob of sour cream at the end. I did put some brown gravy mix in this batch. Just the packet type stuff you get at the supermarket.

Thank you, will have to try this recipe when I get some rabbit meat.

I should clarify that I have both brown rice and wild rice in the stew. Cooking times are the same for both so I do them at the same time together in the pot.

Well, as long as there is garlic and onions, it is good!

Your post and the thought of the taste made the Nation yet another sale.

No tame or wild rabbit available so I am thinking Venison Shanks!

Any meat works with rice in my book. BTW- I sell rabbit meat. Got quite a few packages in the freezer...
