"An appetizing first course from the flavor center of the universe, Louisiana. Courtesy of Chef Randy Barlow of Kelsey's, featured in The Louisiana New Garde television series. Fresh rabbit is best, but frozen will work just fine. Substitute boneless, skinless chicken breast if your hunter has been unsuccessful or you cannot find rabbit at the store."
