Cover the pheasant with breakfast bacon and
pour on some lightly melted butter. Season with
pepper from the mill. Put a knob of salted butter
in the abdominal cavity. Bake the pheasant for
30 to 40 minutes in an oven at 200°C. Check
the cooking in time, the meat must not have
dried out. Cover with aluminium foil and set
aside.
Braised chicory: cut chicory and onion into
large pieces and caramelise in butter and
sugar. Deglaze with brown veal stock. Remove
the stumps from the pan. Deglaze the
casserole with Cognac and Madeira. Sieve and
add the liquid to the chicory. Leave to
evaporate on a low heat.
Separate the breast fillets of the pheasant from
the carcass. Portion the meat and leave it to
simmer with the chicory.
On the dinner plate: a presentation of
pheasant and chicory sauce, if desired, with a
