Squirell is low in fat, and properly prepared is quite tasty. I like mine seared, seared I tell you in a really hot cast iron pan with some olive oil until the outside has a nice crispy layer.

Finish it in a 350 degree oven for about 15 minutes and remove the pieces of squirrel from the pan and set aside.

Put the pan back over medium heat, and add a couple of cloves of sliced garlic, some finely chopped onions or shallots, and cook until tender. Then deglaze the pan with some red wine. Be sure to scrape all those little brown bits off the bottom of the pan with a whisk.

Reduce the sauce by half over medium heat. Then add a pat or two of butter, a bit of heavy cream, and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Pour the sauce over your still warm and crunchy squirrel and serve immediately.

Yummy.
