RABBIT TENDERLOIN WITH SAUTEED SPINACH AND CREOLE MUSTARD SAUCE
An appetizing first course from the flavor center of the universe, Louisiana. Courtesy of Chef Frank Brigsten of Brigsten's Restaurant, featured in The Louisiana New Garde television series. Fresh rabbit is best, but frozen will work just fine. Substitute chicken breasts if your hunter has been unsuccessful or you cannot find rabbit at the store.

Tips:
- Choose a younger rabbit for a more tender dish. Older rabbits can still be used, but they may require a longer cooking time.
- Brown the rabbit meat well before stewing it. This will help to develop flavor and prevent the meat from becoming dry and tough.
- Use a combination of spices and herbs to flavor the stew. Common choices include garlic, onion, celery, green bell pepper, paprika, thyme, and bay leaves.
- Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour, or until the rabbit meat is fall-off-the-bone tender.
- Serve the stew over rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles.
