Grocery store had frozen quail and I bought some. Would like recipe suggestions.
Thanks.
I fry them in a cast iron skillet. Coated with flour/pepper/salt. Lots of butter. When finished add milk to the drippings to make gravy. Pour gravy over rice/quail and have at it.
I side of biscuits don't hurt.

Butterfly them and grill then top with a little
Chimichurri Sauce
Steakhouse in Stephenville Texas butterflied them and then grilled and basted with a citrus sauce. They were excellent.
At home, I just filet the breast meat off. Then flour, salt, pepper and fry the breast filets and legs. Make some gravy. Mashed potatoes. Man I miss the good ol’ days when we had quail.
I've been raising the Japanese quail. Tried the first batch tonight.
Skinned them, then spatchcock, lightly rubbed with olive oil, salt, pepper.
In a pan melted butter, thyme, fresh garlic.
Bird goes breast side down for 5 minutes, then flipped and butter ladled over for a minute or so.
Pan hot, but not so hot that the butter scorches, I want the breast to have browning.
Pretty damn good for a test flight. I'm sure they would be better with the skin on, and a cast iron skillet.
