Rabbit Paprika

I love rabbit. It's tasty and low in fat and lends itself to as many recipes as chicken (in fact, try replacing rabbit in your favourite chicken recipe). This recipe is especially flavourful. A great winter meal to have in front of the fireplace.

Steps

Melt 4 tblsps of the butter in a dutch oven over high heat.
When foam subsides , add onion slices , saute , stirring frequently , until onion begins to wilt , about 2 minutes.
Add 1 / 3 cup of stock and bay leaf.
Heat to boiling.
Reduce heat to very low.
Cook , uncovered , stirring occasionally , for 30 minutes.
Combine 1 tsp of paprika , caraway seeds and 3 peppers in a small bowl.
Melt remaining 3 tblsps butter in large skillet over medium-high heat.
When foam subsides , saute rabbit , in 2 batches if necessary , 3 minutes on each side.
Sprinkle pieces evenly with spice mixture.
Reduce heat to medium.
Continue to saute until browned , about 5 minutes.
Transfer rabbit to casserole with onions.
Pour remaining stock in skillet.
Heat to boiling , scraping bottom and sides of skillet to loosen browned bits.
Add contents of skillet to casserole along with salt.
Heat over high heat to boiling.
Reduce heat to very low and simmer gently , covered , till rabbit is very tende.
