Method

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Cut the rabbit into serving pieces and season with salt and pepper.
  2. Step 2: In a large ovenproof skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Brown the rabbit pieces on all sides, then remove and set aside.
  3. Step 3: Lower heat to medium and add shallots and garlic to the skillet. Sauté until softened, about 3 minutes.
  4. Step 4: Stir in the white wine, scraping up any brown bits, then add Dijon mustard, cream, thyme, and chicken broth. Return rabbit to skillet, spooning sauce over it.
  5. Step 5: Cover the skillet and bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until the rabbit is tender.
  6. Step 6: While the rabbit bakes, cook the rice in a saucepan with 2 cups of chicken broth. Once cooked, fluff with a fork and stir in parsley and a pinch of salt.
  7. Step 7: Serve the rabbit with the creamy mustard sauce over a bed of herbed rice.
