Steps:
- Pour boiling water over the lentils in a bowl, and set aside for 30 minutes. Drain well.
- Season the quail with salt and pepper and dredge lightly with flour.
- Heat the butter and oil in a large saute pan, and brown the quail all over. Set the birds aside.
- Add the bacon, and cook until it is crisp. Drain, and pat dry.
- Add the onion, garlic and thyme, and cook gently until the onion has softened.
- Add the tomatoes, drained lentils, stock and wine, and season with salt and pepper. Cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Uncover, and simmer for an additional 20 minutes, until the lentils are tender.
- Add the quail, and simmer, in covered pan, for 10 to 15 minutes longer or until the quail are cooked and the lentil mixture has thickened.
- Serve directly from the pan, and sprinkle with additional herbs for garnish, if desired.
