Braised Rabbit Roulade

Method

Preparation and Cooking

1

Prepare the Rabbit

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Season the boned rabbit legs with salt, pepper, and minced garlic. Roll each leg tightly and secure with kitchen twine.

2

Sear the Rabbit

In a large oven-safe pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the rabbit roulades until browned on all sides. Remove from pot and set aside.

3

Braise the Rabbit

Add white wine to the pot to deglaze, scraping up any browned bits. Add chicken broth and fresh thyme. Return the rabbit roulades to the pot, cover, and place in the oven. Braise for about 2 hours until tender.

4

Prepare the Smoked Tomato Rice

While the rabbit is braising, cook 1 cup of rice according to package instructions. In a separate pan, blend 2 smoked tomatoes with 1 cup of broth and add to the rice during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

5

Make the Mole Sauce

In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of mole paste with 1 cup of water. Heat until warmed through. Adjust seasoning as needed.

6

Serve

Once the rabbit is done, remove from the oven. Slice roulades and serve over smoked tomato rice, drizzled with mole sauce.
