Here in Costa Rica we have wonderful farmers markets in almost every town. The one where we go, in San Isidro de General, the market covers a huge city block inside an enormous warehouse. One of the ladies there grows and sells rabbit. I found this recipe in The Essential Mediterranean Cookbook and it's become one of our favorites. Just tell your company it's chicken (just kidding...).

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Remove any fat from the rabbits and wash under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Cut along both sides of the backbones with kitchen shears and discard bones.
- Cut each rabbit into eight even-sized pieces and pat dry again.
- Heat half the oil in a 2.5 litre flameproof casserole dish. Brown rabbit in batches, adding oil when necessary, then set aside.
- Add the onion and the bacon to the casserole dish and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Sprinkle the flour into the pan and mix. Stir with a wooden spoon to scrape up the sediment from the base. Add the stock and wine, and stir until the sauce comes to a boil.
- Return the rabbit to the casserole dish and add the thyme.
- Cover and bake for 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the rabbit is tender and the sauce has thickened.
- Combine the cream and mustard, then stir into the sauce in the casserole.
- Garnish with thyme sprigs and serve.
- Great with mashed potatoes.
