  • “Outstanding Pheasant dish! The whole house smelled so good while this was cooking. I will be making this one again. I minced the garlic and used the juice from the mushrooms as part of the water required. The meat came out tender and moist. I served it with recipe #210232 and steamed broccoli. We had a wonderful meal. I posted abefore and after cooking picture. Hope others will try this dish. Thanks, Shirley Spillman for posting.”
