I will share my favourite pheasant recipe, called Beretta pheasant, a nod to the Italian manufacturer of the shotgun I used to shoot the pheasant I used to make this dish for the first time. It’s an Italian twist on a classic roast pheasant.
100g Parma ham
150g ricotta
1 tbsp thyme leaf, plus some sprigs
4 tbsp freshly grated parmesan
2 oven-ready pheasants, washed and dried
150ml extra-dry vermouth or dry white wine
4 garlic cloves
Olive oil
This is a quick-to-make pheasant dish and keeps the mess in the kitchen to a minimum – something I definitely appreciate!
It is a great way to cook a whole bird, ensuring it remains moist, juicy and flavoursome.
I place the pan juices in a gravy boat. This pheasant dish goes well with roasted rosemary and garlic potatoes and spinach.
To continue with the Italian theme, I recommend having a lovely glass (or two) of Barolo with this delicious dish.Â
