Step by step how to prepare

  • The first step is to marinade the rabbit which must be previously cut into pieces and cleaned. Put it into a container so no ingredients are spilled out.
  • Crush the garlic and the ginger in a mortar; mix them with salt, pepper, white wine, rosemary, thyme and oregano (if you choose to use it), as well as the paprika and the olive oil.
  • Then, marinade all the rabbit pieces using this mixture we just made and let them rest for 30 minutes so they can absorb all the flavors better.
  • Pre-heat the oven. After 30 minutes have passed, place the rabbit on a tray and take it to the oven, which must have heat in its upper part and no fan at the bottom. Cook for 40 minutes at 180 ºC. If you’re planning to have it with potatoes, we recommend you to put them on the bottom of the tray, thus they’ll absorb the juices of the meat and the result will be better.
  • After the first 40 minutes, turn the rabbit over. Sprinkle over it the same juice it has been releasing and roast it again for 25 more minutes to give it a brown finish. The time will always depend on the kind of oven, so you have to be aware of not getting the rabbit overcooked, too dry or burnt.
