A truly Southern recipe. A good side dish to go with this is sweet potatoes. You can also grill over coals.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup ground pork
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 tablespoons finely chopped carrots
2 tablespoons finely chopped celery
1 clove chopped fresh garlic
2 1/2 tablespoons fresh bread crumbs
ground black pepper to taste
8 quail, cleaned and split lengthwise
1 tablespoon bacon drippings
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven broiler.
2. In a bowl, mix the pork, parsley, carrots, celery, garlic, bread crumbs, and pepper.
3. Arrange the quail in a baking dish. Separate the skin from the breast of each quail, and stuff with equal amounts of the stuffing mixture. Brush with bacon drippings.
4. Broil the quail 7 minutes on each side in the preheated oven, or to a minimum internal temperature of 180 degrees F (85 degrees C).
