Until I met my husband, an avid hunter, I'd never cooked or eaten pheasant. I tried several different recipes before creating this one using our favorite ingredients. -Joan Mihalko, Elkton, South Dakota

My husband hunts so we have a freezer full of pheasant. This recipe is terrific. Definately keeping it on file for future meals.

Made it a second time and realized I didn't follow the broth measurements the first time - which was actually a good thing. This receipe will really need 1 1/2 to 2 cups of broth instead of just a 1/2 cup for the length of the simmer.

Perhaps a bit heavy on the Dijon mustard or it could just be the brand I used was very strong. Absolutely terrific and a great substitute for chicken.
