Recipe: Orange Chicken Style Pheasant

 

Guest blog post by Jeremiah Doughty, The Wild Chef

 

Growing up I was fascinated by food. I loved taking different ingredients and putting them together to create something new and exciting. I took this love of food with me as I ventured into hunting and fishing. My goal as a wild game chef is to teach people that wild game can not only look great, but taste great too. I want to help people understand that the so called "gamey" flavor of meat is not a negative, but a positive to be embraced. You can pair seasonings and spices with the wild game and enhance and expand the natural flavor.

 

One of my favorite game meats to work with is pheasant. Pheasant is mild in flavor and cooks beautifully in any chicken style recipe you have. You can grill, bake, smoke and fry it with simple ingredients and create memorable, amazingly easy meals.
