Partridge

Looking for a date-night dinner alternative to your roasted chicken? The Chukar or European partridge is a must-try. This small and round bird is actually part of the pheasant family, but is much milder and much less gamy than pheasant. The lean and pale white meat has a great flavor that doesn’t overpower, softer on the palate than most game birds. Perfect for a roast for two, partridge is quick to cook and easy to get tender and juicy.
