Ingredients (view qty in metric system instead)
2 cleaned pheasants, about 2 1/2 pounds each 3 tsp. salt, divided 1 1/2 cups uncooked long grain rice 3 cups water 1/2 cup butter plus additional for brushing pheasants 1 cup finely chopped celery 3 tbsp. minced onion 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms 1/8 tsp. dried sage 1/8 tsp. dried thyme 1/8 tsp. dried savory 6 slices bacon
Directions
Lightly coat the inside of a large roasting pan with cooking spray. Rub 1 tsp. salt into the cavity of each pheasant. Place the rice in a medium skillet and cook until browned over medium heat, stirring frequently. Transfer rice to a large saucepan and add water and remaining 1 tsp. salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 20 minutes. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt 1/2 cup butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add celery, onion and mushrooms and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the cooked rice, sage, thyme and savory into the skillet and stir to combine. Stuff the pheasants with the rice mixture. Truss pheasants with kitchen string. Brush the pheasants all over with the additional melted butter. Lay 3 strips bacon across each pheasant breast. Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil. Roast pheasant about 2 hours until tender, basting frequently with pan juices.
Carve pheasants into serving size pieces and serve with rice stuffing.
Serves 6.
