Zec na hvarski

Zec na hvarski is a traditional dish originating from the island of Hvar. The dish is made with a combination of rabbit, bay leaves, rosemary, celery, parsley, garlic, onions, salt, pepper, vinegar, cloves, oil, red wine, and prošek. The rabbit is marinated in a mixture of herbs, spices, vegetables, and vinegar for two days.


It is then dried and baked in the oven with the oil and the vegetables from the marinade. Once baked, the rabbit is cut into pieces and placed in a pan with sautéed onions. Red wine, prošek, salt, pepper, onions, cloves, bay leaves, and rosemary are added to the pan and the dish is simmered until the rabbit is tender.


Once done, it’s served with boiled potatoes sprinkled with chopped parsley.
