Directions
{{model.addEditText}} Print- Place the flour, salt, and pepper into a resealable plastic bag; shake to mix. Place the pheasant pieces into the flour mixture, and shake until evenly coated.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Shake any excess flour off of the pheasant pieces, and place them in the hot oil. Cook until the pheasant is brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Place the pheasant into a slow cooker, reserving the oil in the skillet. Cook the onion in the remaining oil until they soften, about 3 minutes. Stir in the mushrooms and garlic, and continue cooking and stirring until the mushrooms have softened and the garlic has mellowed, about 5 minutes more.
- Pour the wine into the skillet and bring to a boil. Boil for 5 minutes, then pour in the chicken broth and return to a boil. Pour the mushroom mixture into the slow cooker, and sprinkle with sliced black olives.
- Cover, and cook on High for 4 hours, or Low for 7 hours.

Absolutely delicious; easy to put together (after the pheasants are cleaned and cut up). The sauce produced the most tantalizing smells throughout the house and it tasted just as good. The phe...

I made this recipe exactly as it was written and my husband, the hunter, and I both loved it. I was a little hesitant about the olives but I too hate it when people alter a recipe before even t...
