Rabbit, two ways

Just the other day, Mike decided he wanted to cook a rabbit. This would be his first attempt. Did you know that rabbits are pretty darn expensive? They are. I’m not sure if it takes a special kind of rabbit to eat, but you can get one at Bristol Farms for about $30. Anyway, Mike can’t make up his mind on how to cook this rabbit so he chooses to go at it Iron Chef style and cook it two ways. The first dish is braised rabbit over mushroom polenta, and the second dish is bacon-wrapped roasted rabbit served with carrot salad over polenta. I loved both dishes! The sauce was fantastic! Mike is going to kill me because I can’t remember the details of the sauce. I may have to update this post later.
