10 Step
Recipe View
Cover the slow cooker and cook on High for 4 hours or Low for 7 hours, or until the pheasant is incredibly tender.
For a richer flavor, consider using bone-in, skin-on pheasant pieces.
Dry the pheasant pieces thoroughly before browning to ensure a beautiful sear.
If you don't have crimini mushrooms, other varieties like button or shiitake will also work well.
Garnish with fresh parsley before serving for a vibrant touch.
