With all the Woodcock being reported taken this fall on the site I would like to share this Woodcock Recipe. I stole it from the Upland Journal forum. I have not tried it yet but intend to soon. Enjoy and report back it you try it.
The cant lose woodcock/venison/waterfowl/gamebird recipe
6-8 Woodcock -feeds 3 or 4 people
Fillet off breasts of the woodcock w/no skin
Cut off legs w/thigh, w/no skin.
Mix a marinade w/this:
Minced fresh ginger- about 3 quarter size pieces
Minced 2 large cloves of garlic
3-4 tablespoons of Soy sauce
1 tbs+- of brown sugar
Several drops + of Asian Sesame oil
Black pepper
1 oz+- hard liquor. (I used rum but whiskey etc would work)
(cut up some green onion-put aside)
Marinade WC meat for an hour or so.
Heat a pan w/1 tbs veg oil til smoking hot. Add meat and stir cook til meat turns color--keep heat high. Just a few minutes. Check to make sure it is rare! Dont overcook.
Just at end add a small handful of green onion.
Place meat on top of white rice or to side and add a little more fresh green onion on top.
Thanks to Ben Hong for providing me this recipe. This recipe will work well w/venison/duck and geese. And is good w/any gamebird.
