Grilled Garlic Rabbit Recipes

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together oil, lemon zest and juice, garlic, salt and pepper. Remove 1/3 cup of the mixture, cover and refrigerate. Whisk honey, rosemary and thyme into remaining lemon-oil mixture. Add rabbit, turn to coat, cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. Prepare a grill for medium heat cooking. Remove rabbit from marinade; discard excess marinade. Place rabbit on the grill and cook, turning the pieces occasionally and moving them if the fire flares up, until browned and cooked through, about 12 minutes for small pieces and 20 to 22 minutes for larger pieces. Transfer to a plate and keep warm. Meanwhile, place reserved lemon-oil mixture in a very large bowl. Add kale and gently toss until all leaves are coated. When rabbit is done, place kale leaves in a single layer on the grill. Cook until leaves begin to brown and crisp on the edges, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn leaves and cook other sides until browned and crisped, 1 to 2 minutes more. Slice kale, place on a platter and top with rabbit.

Steps:

• Cut the rabbit in 8 pieces; the legs, 2 pieces from the loin, and 2 from the ribs.
• place them in a bowl or Ziploc bag, and add oil.
• mince the garlic and chop the rosemary; add the rabbit, mix to coat well.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Allow to marinate for at least 2 hrs, or overnight.
• Prepare to grill.
• Grill for 8-10 min per side.
• time indicated is chill and grill time.

Steps:

• Prepare a grill or heat up a grill pan. If available, place a piece of slate on the grill and heat for at least 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the rabbit on a platter and season with salt and pepper. Drizzle 3 tablespoons of olive oil over and scatter garlic slices from 3 cloves, 8 sprigs of thyme and 4 sprigs of rosemary (halved to make 8). Allow it to marinate while the grill is heating.
• When the slate is hot, place the rabbit pieces on the slate. Cook on each side until the rabbit is nicely seared and cooked through, about 5 to 7 minutes per side. Remove the garlic cloves and discard if they begin to burn, they will give a harsh flavor to the rabbit.
• Season the vegetables with salt and pepper and drizzle with olive oil. Halfway into cooking the rabbit, place the vegetables on the slate and place a sprig of thyme and rosemary and a few slices of garlic on each. Cook on each side until nicely browned and softened, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve hot or room temperature.

Steps:

• Heat grill. Drizzle garlic with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place cut side down on a large piece of aluminum foil, and place on grill. Cook until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Turn garlic, and fold foil to enclose tightly.
• Continue cooking until cloves are soft, 15 to 20 minutes, checking often and turning to prevent burning. Remove from grill; let cool slightly. Remove from foil, and place on a serving platter.

Steps:

• Place the rabbit pieces in a large shallow bowl. Combine the oil, lemon juice, rosemary leaves, salt and pepper. Pour the mixture over the rabbit, mix well and allow to marinate for half an hour.
• Heat a charcoal grill or broiler. Cook the rabbit, turning occasionally with tongs, until the pieces are tender but juicy, basting frequently with the marinade. (The legs will take longer than the other pieces.) Garnish with rosemary sprigs and serve.
