Slow-Cooked Partridge Breast with Vegetables and Herbs
Ingredients:
- 4 partridge breasts
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup chicken or game stock (low-sodium preferred)
- 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional, can substitute with more stock)
- 2 carrots, sliced
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 pound baby potatoes, halved
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 tablespoon butter (optional, for added richness)
Instructions:
- Sear the Partridge Breasts (optional but adds flavour):
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season the partridge breasts with salt and pepper.
- Sear them for 2-3 minutes on each side until lightly browned. Then, set them aside.
- Prepare Vegetables:
- In the same skillet, add a bit more olive oil if needed, and sauté the onions, carrots, and celery until they start to soften (about 5 minutes).
- Add the garlic and cook for another minute.
- Assemble in Slow Cooker:
- Place the potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker.
- Add the browned partridge breasts, then layer the sautéed vegetables on top.
- Pour the stock and wine (if using) over everything.
- Add thyme, rosemary, bay leaf, and a bit more salt and pepper.
- Cook:
- Set the slow cooker to Low and cook for 5-6 hours, or on High for 3-4 hours, until the partridge is tender and the flavours have melded.
- Finish and Serve:
- Remove the bay leaf, taste the sauce, and adjust seasoning if needed.
- For a bit more richness, stir in a tablespoon of butter at the end.
- Serve warm with crusty bread or over a bed of mashed potatoes.
