We have two cut up rabbits in the freezer, a dear friend gave us, BUT I have never cooked rabbit before, so any recipes would be great! I know they are very cute and fuzzy! I feel bad, but I would feel even worse if we did not eat them!

I myself know nothing about cooking rabbit either but in putting “How to cook rabbit” on a search engine such as Google…it does give a number of sites to check out. Hope this does help you somewhat.

My aunt used to chicken-fry her rabbit & then bake it. It was quite yummy.
As far as the details of the flour mixture, I’m not sure, but it was pretty basic: maybe Bisquick? (I’m guessing). A
nyways, she fried it on the stove in an iron skillet, carefully drained, & then baked it.

You can use rabbit in just about any recipe that calls for chicken thighs. If you are apt to be thinking about Thumper or Peter as you’re eating it, I recommend making rabbit soup or stew so that there are no recognizable parts (speaking from experience). Once your house is filled with delicious aroma, you won’t feel so squeamish. Any recipe for turkey or chicken soup will work.

Dad ALWAYS came home with a rabbit and not a deer on the opening day of deer season! Mom always made at least one rabbit pot pie……simply used the rabbit instead of chicken. You can taste it and it IS very good!

Cut rabbit into pieces: cut off legs, cut body in half
Put in pot, cover with water. Boil until tender (35 to 60 minutes). Drain and discard broth.
Heat some oil in a frying pan. Add rabbit and brown. Delicious!

Hi. If you raised them then you would not mind, they are fast breeders LOL. Just cook them like you do with chicken. We use to raise rabbits when I lived in AZ, with my ex-husband. Rabbit meat is very good for you, because it is not greasy. I only liked the breast parts.
