In that same skillet, over medium heat, add more olive oil. Add the mushrooms and shallots and saute for about 2 minutes. Transfer the mushroom mixture to the casserole.

Tips:

For the best flavor, use fresh, young rabbit meat. Older rabbits can be tough and gamey.
If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
Don't overcook the rabbit. It should be cooked until it is tender but still slightly pink in the center.
Serve the rabbit with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
