Instructions

  1. Note: This romesco recipe makes way more than you need but you can use it as a condiment or as a pasta sauce. It also freezes very well in zippered bags.
  2. Soak wooden skewers in water. 2 grouse breasts make about 4 - 6" skewers.
  3. Cut grouse breasts into bite-sized pieces. Leave leg quarters whole.
  4. In a small bowl, mix smoked paprika, salt and pepper. Drizzle olive oil over grouse pieces, then toss in grouse in the seasoning mix until well-coated. Arrange breast pieces on skewers. Let grouse marinate in the fridge for at least 1 hour.
  5. Meanwhile, place all romesco ingredients in blender and blend until smooth. Refrigerate until ready to use.
  6. Preheat grill to 400°F. Cook grouse skewers and legs for 10-15 minutes until cooked through. Baste with romesco sauce during the last few minutes of cooking. Serve with romesco sauce for dipping on the side.
