A Simple Pheasant Feast for Guests

Published On: May 4, 2021Categories: Dressed Pheasants

MacFarlane Pheasants, Inc has so many ideas for preparing Pheasant at home. I have selected two recipes that are both delicious and easy to prepare. In fact, they are so easy, I like to prepare them together and add a salad, for the perfect feast. I can prepare both dishes in half an hour, and each recipe takes about 15 minutes to cook. This is the perfect way to entertain. Don’t spend the whole day in the kitchen, make your meal special, and have lots of time to enjoy your company!

Grilled Pheasant Kabobs

Prep Time: 30 minutes

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Ingredients:
1 to 1 ½ pounds pheasant breast strips
1 jar sliced jalapeño peppers, 4 ounces
12 slices bacon, cut into thirds
6 bamboo skewers, soaked in water

Directions:

  1. Cut the pheasant breast into 36 pieces and place the pieces in a mixing bowl.
  2. Pour the juice from the jalapeño peppers over the pheasant and marinate it for 20 minutes.
  3. Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
  4. Drain the marinade from the pheasant.
  5. Place a slice of jalapeño pepper onto each piece of pheasant breast, wrap with a bacon strip, and slide onto a skewer.

Place 4 to 6 rolled wraps on each skewer. Place kabobs on the grill and frequently turn for approximately 15 minutes or until the bacon is crispy and grilled. Remove the skewers from the grill and plate the pheasant.

Using an oven:
Turn on the broiler; place the skewers on a baking pan. Keep the pan 6 inches away from the heat source to avoid cooking too quickly. Broil each side for 10 minutes, or until bacon is crisp, then turn them and broil for 10 additional minutes. Remove the skewers from the oven, and plate and serve immediately.
