Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Rabbit

    Rinse the rabbit pieces under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and black pepper.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sear the Rabbit

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the rabbit pieces and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  2. 3

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion, minced garlic, sliced carrots, and chopped celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

  3. 4

    Add Herbs and Broth

    Stir in the bay leaves and thyme, then return the rabbit to the pot. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a simmer.

  4. 5

    Simmer

    Cover and let the mixture simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the rabbit is tender and fully cooked.

  5. 6

    Thicken the Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix the all-purpose flour with the water to create a slurry. Gradually stir this mixture into the pot, allowing it to thicken for another 10 minutes.

  6. 7

    Finish and Serve

    Remove the bay leaves, adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if necessary, and sprinkle with fresh parsley before serving.
