Honey and Rosemary Baked Rabbit

🍳 Cook: 60 min

Ingredients

5 lbs2.3 kgBone-in rabbit pieces
1/2 cupHoney
1/2 cupApple cider vinegar
1/2 cupFresh rosemary, minced
1/4 cupOlive oil
2 teaspoons10 mlSalt
1/2 – 1 teaspoonBlack pepper

Instructions

  1. Prepare your marinade by mixing your honey, apple cider vinegar, minced rosemary and olive oil in a medium sized bowl.
  2. Pour half of your marinade into one or two large zip storage bags.
  3. Add the rabbit pieces to the bag, close the bags securely and thoroughly coat the pieces. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
  4. Cover the bowl with the remaining marinade and refrigerate that as well.
  5. After the rabbit has been marinaded remove the pieces from the bags and discard the used marinade.
  6. Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  7. Arrange your rabbit pieces in a large baking dish, bone side down.
  8. Season with salt and pepper.
  9. Bake uncovered for 55-60 minutes or until your meat thermometer reaches 160 degrees F (per USDA food safety).
  10. You'll want to baste the rabbit pieces often as it cooks. If it seems to be over browning before it is done cooking, you can cover it but continue basting.
  11. Because the additional marinade is cooked you can use it in serving, if you desire.
  12. Serve with a rice pilaf or baked potato and some fresh garden veggies to complete the meal.
