Instructions Remove the rabbit or hare from the marinade and wipe dry.
In a large casserole, heat the butter or oil and sear the rabbit or hare over high heat until reddened in color, without browning the fat. Meanwhile, peel the onions and cut a cross in the root end with a sharp pointed knife to keep them from falling apart during cooking. Arrange around the rabbit or hare, then stir in the remaining ingredients, add enough water to cover, place an inverted plate over the meat and bring to a boil. Remove from the oven and carefully pour off the sauce into a small saucepan. Remove plate from casserole, pour the sauce over, and garnish with additional rosemary.
