Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Spatchcock the quail ... cut down the backbone only and lay the bird 'spread eagled'
  2. Prepare the marinade by combining all ingredients
  3. Rub the quail with the marinade both inside and out
  4. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator for 24 hours (at least)
  5. Bring to room temperature before cooking
  6. Preheat oven to 180°C
  7. Place par boiled potato segments into a tray with some oil and place in oven. Don't season at all, it will detract from the flavour of the bird
  8. Heat a frying pan to high heat
  9. Place butter and oil mix in the frying pan and heat until smokey
  10. Place each quail in the pan individually, skin side up, and brown for 1 minute on each side
  11. Transfer the first quail to a baking tray and continue with the others, treating each one individually and transferring to the baking tray when browned
  12. Place the baking tray in the oven and cook for 20-25 minutes
  13. Once cooking is finished it is important to rest the quail for 10-15 minutes
  14. Serve with your choice of steamed greens and roasted potato segments.
  15. The final flavour boost is to squeeze a quarter of lemon on each bird at the table. Add extra lemon wedges to the plate for those who like extra zing
  16. Enjoy!
