Pheasant in Cream Sauce Recipe

While it sounds fancy, this dish is easy to make. And if you don’t have pheasant available, you can substitute chicken for an equally delicious main course. —Julie Anderson, Wausau, Wisconsin

This was so tender and the flavor was excellent. I did add some chopped olives to the mixture. My husband loved it and I am giving it to my neighbors to try. Cheryl, Oklahoma
