Amazing Italian Braised Rabbit Recipe
This Italian Braised Rabbit recipe is definitely something different from the regular chicken go-to dinner. That's a good thing because sometimes trying to find new things to make can be challenging. We always seem to alternate through the regular dinners we make that include chicken, fish, and pasta.

Ingredients
- 1 rabbit
- ¼ cups olive oil
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- ½ cups dry white wine for Whole30 substitute with apple cider vinegar
- 2 tbsp butter or ghee
- 1 red onion
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tbsp Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ tsp ground pepper
- 1 cups chicken broth
- 4 small potatoes cut into 4 or 6 pieces, seasoned with salt
Instructions
- Season meat with salt, pepper and Italian seasoning. Place meat in a bowl and add apple cider vinegar with 2 Tbsp of olive oil. Let stand for about an hour. Heat oil and ghee in a large skillet and saute onion and garlic until fragrant.
- Lay rabbit in skillet to brown, turn. If the skillet isn't large enough for all the meat, as the rabbit browns on both sides, layer meat and then continue browning other pieces. Add any juices from bowl and add in the chicken broth.
- Bring skillet liquid to boil, then reduce to low and simmer, covered. After about an hour, wedge a spoon in the lid and continue cooking on low while the liquid reduces.
- Add the potatoes (seasoned with salt) about one hour into cooking time. Let cook another 30 minutes. Once the meat flakes away easily from the bone, it's ready. It will be take about 90 minutes when it is simmered at a low heat setting.
- Let the rabbit rest in the skillet about 10 minutes before serving.
