- Sauteed Grouse with Peach Beurre Blanc Sauce

I first tasted this in a restaurant owned by a friend who specializes in game bird dishes and loved it. He graciously gave me this simple but elegant recipe that I've been making for 10 years. This sauce has a mild sweet taste, a beautiful color and tastes delicious with delicate game meats such as grouse, pheasant or quail. Serve with wild rice pilaf and it's perfect for company.
