Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside. Pour bacon fat into a bowl and, starting with one T., add the fat back to the pot. Cook onion, garlic and mushroom in the bacon fat until medium-soft (about 5-6 minutes). Remove and set aside in the bowl with the bacon. Season the rabbit pieces with salt and pepper. Add a bit more bacon fat (or butter if you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122d prefer) back to the heavy-bottomed pan and add your rabbit pieces. Sear the outside on all sides of each piece until they are nice and golden brown (about 6 to 8 minutes). Remove to a plate for a moment. I know, I know\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 lots of removing of food from the pan. They\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ll be back soon. Deglaze the bottom of your pan with wine &#8211; keep heat up to medium and scrape all the bits from the bottom of the pan. After about a minute or so, add your chicken stock, tarragon, bruised tarragon sprig and mustard. Stir. Now, add back everything &#8211; rabbit, mushrooms, bacon, onions, garlic, etc. &#8211; to the pan. Bring to a boil and then lower to medium\/medium-low and simmer, covered for 30 minutes. After that, continue to simmer the dish uncovered for another 20 to 30 minutes. It will cook down to a thicker sauce. Finish by stirring in the cream and fishing out the loose tarragon sprig. Enjoy!<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00c2\u00a0 3 rashes of bacon, cut into pieces 1 small onion, diced finely 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 box of button mushrooms, cleaned and sliced lengthwise 1 whole rabbit, cut into pieces 3 sprigs of tarragon &#8211; 2 with tarragon leaves removed and chopped and 1 left whole, bruised by back of a chef\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s knife 2 1\/2 C. of white wine 2 heaping T. of dijon mustard 1 1\/2 C. of chicken stock 1\/2 C. light cream \u00c2\u00a0 Heat heavy-bottomed&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"><a class=\"btn btn-default\" href=\"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/?p=7473\"> Read More<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">  Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[157],"class_list":["post-7473","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-game-and-other-meats","tag-rabbit"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7473","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=7473"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7473\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":7480,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/7473\/revisions\/7480"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=7473"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=7473"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=7473"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
