  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 boneless rabbit loins (from 1 rabbit)
  • kosher salt
  • black pepper
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ cup buttermilk
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 2 ½ cups crushed cornflakes cereal
  • ¾ cup canola or vegetable oil
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • steamed green beans or asparagus (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F and set a wire rack on a rimmed baking sheet.
  2. Pound each rabbit loin until ¼-inch thick between two sheets of plastic wrap or parchment paper.
  3. Cut each loin into 3 pieces, resulting in 6 rabbit steaks.
  4. Season both sides of each steak with kosher salt and black pepper.
  5. In a shallow bowl, place flour. In another bowl, whisk together buttermilk, eggs, paprika, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. In a third bowl, combine cornflakes and 1 teaspoon salt.
  6. Dredge each rabbit steak in flour, then dip into the buttermilk mixture, and finally coat with cornflakes, pressing down to adhere. Place on a plate.
  7. Heat oil in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Fry the rabbit in batches of 3, cooking until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side. Keep fried rabbit warm in the oven while frying the rest.
