FRIED "BUFFALO STYLE" RABBIT WITH BLUE CHEESE AND HOT SAUCE

Categories     Salad     Sauce     Cheese     Side     Fry     Marinate     Salad Dressing     Buffalo     Rabbit     Boil

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 yellow onion, halved
1 garlic clove, smashed
1/2 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley
2 bay leaves
1 fresh thyme sprig
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
Two 3-pound rabbits, each cut into 8 pieces, rinsed
1 quart buttermilk
1 tablespoon Habañero Hot Sauce (page 244) or store-bought hot sauce, such as Tabasco, plus more for serving
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon garlic powder
2 teaspoons sweet smoked paprika
Canola oil, for deep-frying
Blue Cheese Sauce (recipe follows)
Blue Cheese Sauce
1 cup sour cream
1 cup crumbled Danish blue cheese
2 tablespoons buttermilk
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
(makes 1 1/2 cups)

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with water and add the onion, garlic, parsley, bay leaves, thyme, 2 tablespoons salt, and the peppercorns. Bring to a rapid boil and cook for 5 minutes to infuse the water with the aromatics. Add the rabbit and bring back up to a boil; this should take roughly 5 minutes. Strain the rabbit pieces, transfer to a baking dish, and set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • Pour the buttermilk over the rabbit, turning the pieces so they are well coated. Add the hot sauce. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours. If you have the time, marinate the rabbit for up to 2 days-the buttermilk tenderizes the meat.
  • Spread the flour on a large shallow platter. Add the garlic powder and paprika; season with lots of salt and pepper. Mix the seasoned flour with your fingers until all the ingredients are thoroughly incorporated. Remove the rabbit pieces from the buttermilk, discarding the buttermilk. Roll the pieces in the flour, a few at a time, until well coated, tapping off the excess. Let the rabbit sit in the flour and dry out while you heat the oil; this will help the crust stay on better. The buttermilk will keep absorbing the seasoned flour, which then fries up to form a crunchy crust.
  • Heat 3 inches of oil to 375°F in a countertop electric fryer or deep pot. (I like to start with very hot oil because as soon as the rabbit is added, the temperature drops significantly.) If you don't have a deep-fry thermometer, a good way to test if the oil is hot enough is to stick the end of a wooden spoon or chopstick in it. If bubbles circle around the end, then you're good to go.
  • Working in batches, carefully add 3 or 4 pieces of rabbit at a time. Fry until the rabbit is golden and crisp with even color, turning halfway through cooking, about 10 minutes total. Transfer to a platter lined with paper towels and repeat with the remaining rabbit pieces.
  • To serve, arrange the fried rabbit on a large platter. Serve with hot sauce and the blue cheese sauce on the side for dipping.
  • Blue Cheese Sauce
  • In a small bowl, combine the sour cream, cheese, and buttermilk; season with salt and pepper. Mash the ingredients with a fork; the sauce should remain somewhat lumpy.

Tips:

- When choosing a rabbit for frying, select one that is young and tender, as older rabbits can be tough and gamey. - To ensure that the rabbit is cooked evenly, cut it into small pieces before frying. - Season the rabbit liberally with salt, pepper, and your favorite spices before frying. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat. - Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven for frying the rabbit. This will help to prevent the meat from sticking to the pan and burning. - Heat the oil over medium-high heat before adding the rabbit. This will help to create a crispy crust on the outside of the meat. - Fry the rabbit in batches, working in no more than a single layer at a time. This will prevent the meat from overcrowding the pan and steaming instead of frying. - Cook the rabbit until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside. This should take about 5-7 minutes per side. - Serve the fried rabbit hot with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, coleslaw, or macaroni and cheese.
