Categories: Game, Poultry
Yield: 2 servings

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-JUDY GARNETT PJXG05A
2 Pheasant breasts
2 tb Lemon juice
1/2 ts Salt
1/2 ts Pepper
3 tb Butter
1 ts Shallots; peeled, chopped
2 tb Brandy
1/3 c Dry white wine
1/3 c Heavy cream
1 tb Meat Glaze
-dashes of cayenne
1 tb Truffles or morels; cut
- into thin strips
2 tb Mushrooms; thin strips

Remove skim from pheasant breasts. Trim edges and flatten breasts slightly with a meat mallet. Rub breasts with 1 T. of the lemon juice, and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Melt 2 T. of the butter in a 9-inch skillet. When butter foams, add breasts and suate 3 minutes on each side. Do not overcook. Make a shallow cut in one of the breasts with a sharp knife. The meat should be pink and the juice that run out should be clear yellow. Remove breasts from skillet nad keep warm. Add shallots to dripping and saute until golden brown. Drain butter from shallots and reserve. Add brandy and wine and reduce to half its volume. Add cream and Meat Glaze and reduce to half its volume gain. Strain sauce, and add the remaining 1 T. lemon juice, the remaining T. butter and cayenne. Mix truffles and mushrooms, and divide into 2 portions. Place warm breasts on a serving dish. Top each with truffles and mushrooms. Pour sauce over breasts and cover with a glass cover. Recipe from the Greenbrier Hotel.

CHEF's NOTE: Breast of pheasant is served under glass to hold in the cognac flavor that makes this dish so unique.


For those rare flamers that could possibly aspire to the merest hope of someday being able to afford such a truffle--I mean trifle...a recipe of dacadence. YUMM!
