The meat can be replaced with any other kind of meat with bones.

Stew Ingrediens:
1 to 2 large rabbits
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 large tomatoes, grated with skin off
7 to 8 garlic cloves, chopped
1 pound of pearl onions, peeled
1 cup red wine "I suggest a Pinot Noir"
2 cups chicken stock
1 cup water
4 bay leaves
2 rosemary sprigs
2 tablespoons tomatoe paste
1 to 2 tablespoons dried oregano
olive oil, as needed
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Joint the rabbit, it is your option on if you would like to add the rib cage and tail bone to your stew, as well as the belly flaps. If jointing your own rabbit turns your stomach... have the butcher do it for you.
Once the rabbit has been cut up sprinkle salt and pepper to your likeing, then massage into the meat. Then add the red wine vinegar and let in marinate and chill for a minimum of 2 hours, maximum 24 hours.
Once the 2 hours are up, reserve the red wine vinegar, pat dry the rabbit and then sear in a hot pan with enough olive oil to coat the pan. You want this at a high heat as to just get color on the meat, you do not want to cook the rabbit through.
When the rabbit is slightly golden brown on both sides place in a dutch oven or heavy pot.
Back to the pan you just seared the meat in, add the parl onions and saute until they have color, then add in the garlic and continue to cook until aromatic. Add the red wine and scrape with a wooden spoon to get all the flavor off from the bottom of the pan.
Pour the pearl onions, garlic and red wine onto the meat now.
Add all other ingredients to the pot, including the reserved red wine vinegar, lightly stir and then bring to a boil, once boiling bring the stew back down to a simmer and cover. Let the stew cook until the meat can pull easily from the bones. About 2 hours.

Lemon Rosemary Potaotes Ingredients:
8 to 10 medium russet potatoes, peeled and cut length wise, thick cut
Juice of 1 large lemon
2 rosemary sprigs, leaved and chopped
olive oil, enough to coat potatoes
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, add all ingredients together ad toss well. Place potatoes on a foiled sheet pan and bake for 1 hour or until tender. Make sure to mix/stir the potatoes every once in a while to prevent from sticking.

Enjoy!!

I get my rabbits from my local Farmers Market, I know that those rabbits have been treated well, well fed and are fresh.
