Preparation

  • Debone the pigeon breasts and set them aside. Sauté the carcasses and cleaned legs in a pan, then combine them in a saucepan with the leek and previously sautéed raisins. Add the turmeric and herbs, deglaze with water, and let simmer. Strain and reduce to obtain a sauce.
  • Sear the pigeon breasts over very hot coals with a drizzle of oil, then coat them in corn flour and let the meat rest.
  • Trim the Swiss chard and blanch it in boiling water for 2’. Dress with olive oil.
  • Toast half an onion studded with cloves. Cook the previously soaked beans in water with the onion. Serve the beans warm, drained of their water.
  • Heat the pigeon breasts in the oven and slice them. Place the cooked beans at the base of the plate, add the sauce, top with the pigeon breast, and garnish with the blanched Swiss chard leaves.
