4 Reviews of Baked Quail

I tried two quail recipes on my family and then again for company. This one was the favorite both times. It was easy to prepare and delicious. One caution: The recipe is way too salty. Cut the salt by at least half, maybe two thirds. (If you notice the nutrition info you'll see the sodium is so high. It doesn't need to be this high to taste delicious!)

Great recipe. First time I had ever cooked quail and it turned out really well. I took bcave7's advice and cut way down on the salt - it was still plenty salty and had good flavor. I served it with boiled new potatoes which were very tasty with the roue. I look forward to next quail season so I can make it again or I may go ahead and use game hens or plain ole chicken.

I love quail — I wish they were the size of chickens! This recipe is 5 star, although I still prefer quail breaded and fried. I thought the gravy/sauce was especially good. Thanks for sharing!

Delicious! This was the first quail I've ever cooked and they came out great. As with some of the other reviewers, I also cut waaay back on the sodium/salt, and I threw chunks of new potatoes into the pan to soften and absorb the sauce. I only cooked two quail but used the quantities listed here for the sauce, so there was plenty to pour over the potatoes.
