Quail Recipes
Heather Said:
Does anyone have any simple quail egg recipes?(poss.Kwek-Kwek)?We Answered:
Since you have not had these eggs before and are interested in tasting them, try just poaching or soft boiling them. You can also make scrambled eggs. It takes several eggs to make a serving, but since this is your first experience, keep them as simple as possible.Eggs are eggs, but I have access to organic chicken, turkey, duck, and goose eggs. They all have different characteristics and it is worth treating yourself to something unique..
Tip: break your eggs one at a time into a bowl before adding to your recipe (just in case one is spoiled).

What are some excellent quail recipes?We Answered:
Quail are very small, even the Jumbo US ones, split down the back, I use kitchen shears, and marinate or just pan roast, they go well with fruit sauces and glazes, even on the BBQ with a sauce done at the last turn, there bony and not much meat on them, 3 for an appetizer and 4 for a main course as the servings go.Jamie Said:

Fried Quail with Mushroom Gravy
~ 2 quail
~ salt
~ pepper
~ flour
~ oil
~ 1 can cream of mushroom soup
~ 1 quart water, more or less
Wash quail and leave wet. Salt and pepper each to taste.
In a large skillet, heat the oil.
Place flour in a bag, and shake each quail, one at a time until covered. Save flour.
Place the quail in the hot oil and fry like chicken. Reduce heat so they don't burn.
When the quail is done, remove to a warm platter and drain on paper towels. Use the oil and drippings for the gravy.
Take about 1 1/2 cups of the flour from the bag and place in the skillet and mix with the drippings. Add more oil or flour as necessary to make a pasty consistency. Heat until brown stirring constantly.
Stirring constantly, add 1/2 of the water and the soup. Mix well.
Add more water until pan is 1/2" from being full or use the rest of the quart. Stir constantly.
Just before the gravy gets to the desired consistency, remove from heat. Gravy will thicken some as it sets.
Serve the gravy over the quail and/or mashed potatoes.
Enjoy!

Marinated Grilled Quail
~ 2 quails
~ 1 tbsp lemon juice
~ 1 cup Italian dressing
~ 2 or 3 dashes of worchestershire sauce
~ 1 or 2 tsp minced garlic
In a bowl mix together the lemon juice, Italian dressing, worchestershire sauce and garlic. You may need to double the recipe if you have a lot of quail.
Place the quail in a large bowl. Pour the marinate over the quail, covering it well.
Cover and place in refrigerator overnight. Remove cover every few hours and stir the quail around so that it coats evenly.
Grill the quail over medium heat. Brush often with the marinate. Grill until done turning and basting often.

Good quail recipes??We Answered:
basically treat it like chicken. Personally I like to split it down the middle - brown in a pan with a little EVOO - then set aside. Add a little butter and wine and your favorite herbs. cook down a little. Add a TBLSPN. flour and make a gravy. Put the quail in a 350 oven till cooked thru - then you add your gravy on top. Easy and elegant.....way to go.Mario Said:
