Pheasant (or chicken) with Apple Cider image

I picked up this recipe years ago and it is one of my favorites when we've been blessed with a brace of wild pheasants...the apple cider and paprika gives it a wonderful flavor. Feel free to replace the pheasant with chicken and enjoy either way! I've suggested side dishes and a salad at the bottom of the cooking...

Categories     Wild Game

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pheasant quartered (substitute with chicken)
1 can(s) cream of chicken soup (condensed)
1/2 c apple cider
1 1/2 Tbsp worcestershire sauce
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 c chopped onions
1 garlic clove minced
1 c dried cranberries
4 oz mushrooms, fresh
pinch paprika (hungarian if available)
2-3 c milk

Steps:

  • 1. Marinate Pheasant (or chicken) in milk for 2-4 hours
  • 2. Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place Pheasant in un-greased baking dish (deep sided lasagna dish/pan works best)
  • 3. Mix soup, cider, salt and other in bowl. Pour over Pheasant and sprinkle VERY generously with paprika. Note: if doubling recipe, use only 3/4 apple cider. also, do not mix water with the condensed soup...just use the soup base in the can
  • 4. Place in oven and bake uncovered for 1 to 1.25 hours, occasionally basting. Err to remove sooner than later to preven meat from becoming dry (3/4 to 1 hour).
  • 5. Remove from oven. Place on plate and sprinkle with paprika and extra cranberries.
  • 6. I like to serve with asparagus and chery tomato's and roasted/quarted rosemary potatos and a good bottle of wine following a small but nice spinach/rasberry/brie/macadamia nut/rasberry vinaigrette salad.
  • 7. Enjoy!

I'm not a huge fan of pheasant, but this dish was really good. The apple cider sauce made all the difference.

This was a great recipe! I used chicken instead of pheasant and it turned out just as well. The sauce was especially good.

I made this dish last night and it was a hit! My family loved it. The pheasant was so tender and juicy, and the apple cider sauce was the perfect balance of sweet and tart.
