2 Each Rabbits, 2 teaspoons Olive Oil

Notes
Rabbit can be quite small and the bones can be quite elusive sometimes. Make sure to check carefully when dishing up.If you want to thicken up the stew a little more, sprinkle some instant mashed potatoes into the slow cooker and stir into the rabbit stew. It will thicken nicely and give some more flavor.
