Cooking Notes
Used boneless quail.. So I sautéed the shallots and mushrooms and parsley with lots of butter.. used oatmeal light bread. Stuffed birds. Did more onion and mushrooms in the pans, removed, then seared quail. Put in oven with wine for 15 minutes at 375, turned and broiled..
Temp was high and birds got dry. Sauce was delicious. I actually put the mushrooms in with the shallots before blending the stuffing, and I don't regret that decision. All told if the breasts could be a little more moist this would be a total winner. That could be solved simply by not cranking up the heat at the end.
