Details
Create flavorful, gourmet dishes that will truly stand out on your menu with this Manchester Farms 4.5 oz. butterfly cut quail! This quail has the backbone snipped out and is flattened to be breast up, allowing you to offer an attractive bone-in presentation without time-consuming butchering. Ideal for searing, baking, or grilling, this butterfly cut is flatter than a semi boneless or whole quail and has more surface area, allowing for quick and even cooking and a deep sear. When served next to a pile of tender fingerling potatoes and bright, fresh vegetables like asparagus or haricots vert, this quail is sure to be a memorable entree that customers will order again and again!
In comparison to its more popular poultry cousin, chicken, quail boasts noteworthy flavor and a number of health benefits that make it an excellent choice for foodies and health-conscious consumers alike! Quail meat contains 4 times more vitamin C than chicken meat, is exceptionally high in iron, and even contains vitamin A, which is completely absent in chicken. This lean meat is also packed with minerals and amino acids, so customers do not have to consume as much quail meat to get the essential nutrients they need. Beyond its health benefits, quail is beloved by a loyal following of devotees for its remarkable flavor: as a domesticated game bird, quail meat is more pungent and "gamey" than chicken meat, though its flavor is less potent than that of "true" wild game birds. Quail has been a staple in East Asian cuisine for centuries, and is also popular in the cuisine of the American South, but this tender, flavorful meat is a great vessel for nearly any combination of flavors you like. It can be grilled, fried, or roasted, but no matter how you choose to prepare it, it's best when cooked for a short period of time at high heat until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
As the oldest producer of quail in the United States, Manchester Farms has built their reputation on quality and expertise.
