Ingredients

1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper

4 pheasant breasts, cubed
2 Tbsp canola oil

1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp rosemary
1/8 tsp pepper
2 cups tart apples, chopped
1 cup apple cider
2 Tbsp red wine vinegar

Directions

Preheat oven to 350F

In a small bowl, combine flour, salt and pepper.

Chop the pheasant breasts in to bite sized cubes.

Coat each piece of pheasant in the flour mixture and brown all sides of the pheasant on the stove with canola oil. You may want to do this the night before to prepare to cut down on preparation time the day of. Or you could freeze the pheasant chunks for use another day.

Remove pheasant chunks to a greased casserole dish. Sprinkle with salt, rosemary and pepper. Add the chopped apples to the dish, as well as the apple cider and wine vinegar. We use apples from my mom's apple tree that we core, chop and freeze each summer for easy use all year round. You can of course use fresh too. Mix thoroughly.

Pop the covered casserole dish into the oven for 30-40 minutes at 350F. We usually pair this dish with mashed potatoes, so if throw some in a pot and let your house fill with the delicious aroma of pheasant!
