In a pan, heat the oil with the garlic divided in half. If you like, you can also add a chilli pepper which goes well with both the meat and the orange. Brown the guinea fowl first on the skin side and then on the other then add the white wine .

When you no longer smell alcohol, add salt , pepper , rosemary and grated orange zest , put the lid on and cook over medium-low heat for 45 minutes , stirring occasionally. If the bottom dries out excessively you can add broth a little at a time.

In our recipe we use zest to give the guinea fowl an intense flavour. If you prefer to keep the orange flavor more delicate then omit the zest, adding only 3-4 slices of another orange when blended with the juice.

A further simple addition that will make this second course of the holidays even better are the green olives . Add about 50 grams halfway through cooking and you will discover a new perfect marriage. Staying on the theme, we recommend you also try the guinea fowl hunter style , rustic and perfect for more informal occasions.
