Sear the Rabbit
In a large oven-safe skillet or Dutch oven, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated rabbit on all sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Add Vegetables
Add the chopped carrots, onions, potatoes, and celery around the rabbit in the skillet. Pour in the chicken broth.

Serve
