Method
- In the bowl of a food processor, combine the mushrooms, andouille, onions and garlic.
- Pulse until the mixture forms a coarse paste, about 10 times.
- In a large saute pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil.
- When the oil is hot, add the mushroom mixture.
- Season the mixture with Essence, salt and pepper.
- Saute for 4 minutes.
- Stir in the port and cook for 1 minute.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the bread crumbs and cool completely.
- Season each quail, inside and out with the remaining olive oil and Essence.
- Stuff each quail with 1/4 cup of the duxelles and wrap the skin around the stuffing.
- Make an incision in the bony end of one leg of each bird and insert the other leg through the incision to keep the legs crossed to make a nice presentation.
- Place the quail on a parchment-lined baking sheet, about 1 inch apart.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and roast the quail until they're golden brown and crisp-skinned, for about 20 minutes.
- Serve the quails with the sauce ladled over the top.
- Heat the oil in a large saucepan over high heat.
- When the oil is hot add the shallots and garlic.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Saute for 1 minute.
- Stir in the sugar and port, bring to a boil, and cook for 3 minutes.
- Stir in the stock and cook over high heat, for about 20 minutes.
