From field to dinner table, rabbit is still enjoyed by millions of hungry enthusiastic diners. This delicious recipe is for those not wanting fried foods all the time. Rabbit is the other delicious white meat. It's higher in protein and lower in fat than beef, pork and poultry, and the USDA encourages rabbit as part of a healthy diet. Wild rabbit needs special preparation, like tenderizing and marinating, but farmed rabbit can be cooked in many of the same ways as chicken. The U.S. Department of Agriculture recently proclaimed it the most nutritious of all white meats

How To Make rabbit and gravy

  • Step 1
    Place the cleaned rabbit pieces into boiling water and boil until approximately 2/3 cooked or until meat is white and has very little pink. Cooking the meat makes it much easier to remove from the bone.
  • Step 2
    Once the rabbit is cooked, (usually about 1 1/2 hours) take the rabbit out of the boiling water and allow it to slightly cool. Remove the meat from the bone, (debone).
  • Step 3
    Milk Gravy: In a large skillet, pour in vegetable oil and blend in flour. Cook and stir over moderate heat until light brown. Add 1 cup of milk, add cooked rabbit, stirring, until thickened. Reduce heat and simmer 3-5 minutes.
  • Step 4
    Serve over toast
