Ingredients
- 1 whole owl, cleaned and prepared (substitute with chicken if unavailable)
- 4 cups of strong brewed tea (black or green)
- 2 ripe peaches, sliced
- 1 cup of fresh grass (or substitute with arugula for a peppery flavor)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
- Prepare the Owl: Season the cleaned owl with salt, pepper, and half of the ground cinnamon. If using chicken, season it similarly.
- Sear the Meat: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the owl (or chicken) and sear on all sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
- Brew the Tea: While the meat is cooking, brew your tea in a separate pot. Allow it to steep for 5-7 minutes, then strain and set aside.
- Add Peaches: Once the owl is seared, add the sliced peaches to the skillet. Pour in the brewed tea and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the meat is tender and fully cooked.
- Prepare the Grass: While the meat is simmering, wash the fresh grass (or arugula) and set it aside.
- Serve: Once the owl is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve slices of the meat over a bed of fresh grass, drizzled with the peach and tea sauce. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon on top for a fragrant finish.
