Description

A hearty and comforting pheasant stew recipe featuring tender pheasant, seasonal vegetables, fresh herbs, and a rich broth. This easy pheasant stew is perfect for a cozy fall or winter meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pheasants, cut into serving pieces
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
  • 2 celery stalks, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried sage
  • 6 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup dry white wine (optional)
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Season the pheasant pieces generously with salt and pepper.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the pheasant pieces on all sides. Remove the pheasant from the pot and set aside.
  3. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery to the pot. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add the minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and sage. Cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Pour in the chicken broth and white wine (if using), scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
  6. Return the pheasant pieces to the pot. Bring the stew to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the pheasant is tender.
  7. Season the pheasant stew with additional salt and pepper to taste.
  8. Ladle the hearty pheasant stew into bowls and garnish with fresh parsley.

Notes

  • For a thicker stew, you can mix 2 tablespoons of flour with 1/4 cup of water and stir it into the stew during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
  • This pheasant stew can be made ahead of time and reheated. The flavors meld and deepen overnight, making it even more delicious the next day.
  • If wild pheasant is unavailable, you can substitute with chicken or other game birds.
