Tired of pigeon poop?

Well grab your BB Gun and get shooting...and then make dinner. Here is a recipe for cooking pigeon! There will be more posted at a later time and date.

Pan-Roasted Rock Doves
Servings: 3

4 Tbsp All purpose flour
1/2 tsp Salt
1 tsp Ground Black pepper
6 Rock Doves, cleaned
2 Tbsp Butter
2 Tbsp Bacon drippings
1 C Dry white wine
1 1/2 C Veal or chicken broth
1 Tbsp Red currant jelly

Combine 2 Tbsp flour, salt & 1 tsp black pepper; dredge doves in mixture. Brown doves on both sides in butter and bacon drippings in a large skillet. Gradually add 1/2 C wine, 3/4 C broth & jelly. Cover and cook over low heat 40 minutes. Remove doves and keep warm.

Combine 2 Tbsp flour, 1/2 C wine & 3/4 C broth, stirring until flour dissolves. Gradually add flour mixture to the pan drippings. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens. Serve the gravy with doves.
