Do you have a bird hunter in your house or in my case a friend that hunts doves. My friend Tommy, is probably one of the laziest people I have every known when it comes to any type of physical exercise. He is an avid golfer only if carts are available. He also uses his cart for dove hunting. Lazy! However he does pay someone to clean the doves and he brings them to me ready to cook. What a guy!
Other than a simple pan roasting this is one of my favorite recipes for dove. This is straight from Joy of Cooking.
