DO NOT COVER THE RABBIT WITH WATER

Cover pan and let cook for 10 minutes medium heat, turn rabbit over
And let cook 10 more minutes.
Take the pan cover off the pan.
Then repeat the process until the rabbit is completely cooked.

Serve with the onions on top and some of the liquid from the pan.

Oh yeah... Mom said to add more water if it cooks out before the rabbit is tender.... Also, for you connoisseurs and wild game chefs.... you can cook the rabbit in WINE if you want to replace the cooking water with wine.... I'd use red wine if I were doing it...

I've tried it with the wine but Mom's is always the best in my opinion.... it's not too fancy but Mom is a farmer's wife!! ;D

Sounds good to me I even have a few rabbits around that WILL volunteer for the recipe.
