15 minutes

Spicy quail fillet is a gourmet dish that combines the tenderness of meat with the vibrant aroma of spices. Inspired by modern culinary trends, it adds new flavor dimensions to traditional game recipes. Quail fillet marinated in aromatic herbs, mustard, and soy sauce acquires a rich taste with spicy notes. Chili and curry give the dish an Eastern expression, making it slightly hot and warming. This dish is perfect for special dinners when you want to impress guests with a refined yet easy-to-prepare treat. It cooks quickly: after marinating, the fillet is seared in a hot pan, forming an appetizing crust while retaining juiciness inside. Served hot, it pairs wonderfully with grilled vegetables or a light side dish.
