“A pheasant and mushroom lover's dream! The gameyness of the pheasant and the gameyness of the mushrooms validate each other splendidly! Killer! Spoon over cooked pasta or rice, and top with grated parmesan cheese.” - by Sarah

My husband has and he said it was a wonderful recipe, as did my step-son, who would never have tried it if he knew there was pheasant in ..." See moreit!!
