Instructions

  1. Pat the rabbit leg dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.
  2. Season the rabbit leg evenly with sea salt and ground black pepper on all sides.
  3. Heat unsalted butter in a medium skillet over medium heat until melted and foamy.
  4. Add the minced garlic clove and fresh thyme sprig to the skillet and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
  5. Place the rabbit leg in the skillet and sear for 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Sprinkle the brown sugar evenly over the rabbit leg and allow it to melt and caramelize, about 2 minutes.
  7. For the soy sauce over the rabbit leg and reduce heat to low, spooning the glaze over the meat.
  8. Cover the skillet and simmer gently for 10 minutes until the rabbit is cooked through and tender.
  9. Remove the thyme sprig and discard. Let the rabbit rest for 5 minutes before serving.
