Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Grilled Pheasant Bites.
Step 1
Begin by slicing the pheasant breast into 36 bite-sized morsels and transfer them to a spacious bowl.
Step 2
Drizzle the reserved jalapeño pepper liquid over the pheasant pieces, ensuring each one is well-coated, and allow them to marinate at room temperature for 20 minutes to absorb those zesty flavors.
Step 3
While the pheasant is soaking up the goodness, fire up your outdoor grill to a medium heat and lightly oil the grill grate to keep things from sticking.
Step 4
After the marination, drain the liquid from the pheasant and toss it away.
Step 5
Take a slice of jalapeño pepper and place it atop each piece of pheasant, then wrap it snugly with a third of a bacon strip.
Step 6
Thread six of these delightful bacon-wrapped pheasant bites onto each soaked bamboo skewer, creating a tempting array.
Step 7
Grill the skewers on your preheated grill, turning them frequently until the bacon crisps up beautifully and the pheasant is cooked through, which should take about 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 8
Once they’re perfectly grilled, remove the pheasant pieces from the skewers and insert a toothpick into each for easy serving.
Step 9
Enjoy these savory bites that are sure to impress your guests!.
