Method — tap a step to expand

Rest and finish:

Remove from oven and rest for 5 minutes — this redistributes the juices and keeps the meat tender.

Squeeze 2 tablespoons lemon juice (about 1 lemon) over the top. Serve alongside your base of choice (see goal-based tips below).
Notes

Prep the rabbit:

Pat 500 grams rabbit portions (leg or saddle), bone-in completely dry with paper towels — moisture is the enemy of a good crust. Season generously with 1 pinch salt and black pepper and 1 teaspoons smoked paprika on all sides. Let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.

Build the cashew crust:

In a bowl, combine 50 grams Beast Roasted Cashews , finely crushed, 2 tablespoons Beast Almonds , roughly chopped, 3 fresh garlic cloves, minced, chopped 2 fresh rosemary sprigs, leaves stripped and finely chopped, 1 tablespoons fresh thyme, leaves only, 1 teaspoons lemon zest, and a pinch of salt.
Mix until evenly combined — this is your armour.

Coat the rabbit:

Coat the rabbit: In a small bowl, whisk 1 tablespoons Dijon mustard with 1 tablespoons honey until smooth. Brush this mixture generously over all surfaces of the rabbit portions. Press the cashew-herb crust firmly onto the mustard-coated rabbit — pack it on, don't be shy.

Sear and set the crust:

Heat 1 tablespoons olive oil in an oven-safe skillet or cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Place rabbit portions crust-side up and sear the bottom for 3–4 minutes until golden. Do not flip — the crust stays on top.

Oven finish:

Pour 120 milliliters chicken stock (low sodium) carefully into the base of the pan (not over the crust).

Transfer to a preheated oven at 190°C (375°F) and roast for 25–28 minutes until the internal temperature hits 71°C (160°F) and the crust is deep golden.

Nutritional Info

Bulking Phase

Stack the surplus

-Serve over 150–200g white rice or roasted sweet potatoes (adds ~250–350 kcal, 50–60g carbs)

-Double the cashew crust — extra 50g Beast Roasted Cashews adds ~280 kcal of healthy fats

-Add a side of roasted root vegetables (carrots, parsnips) tossed in olive oil

-Drizzle the pan juices over everything — flavour and calories in one move

-Pair with a Beast Almond handful as a post-meal snack for sustained energy

**Target total: ~750–900 kcal per meal

Cutting Phase

Strip it back

-Skip the honey in the mustard glaze — use straight Dijon only

-Reduce the cashew crust by half (25g) to cut fat calories

-Replace the chicken stock with water + a squeeze of lemon for the pan base

-Serve over a large bed of steamed greens (spinach, broccoli, green beans) — volume with near-zero calories

-Skip the almonds; keep the herbs and garlic for flavour without the fat

Target total: ~300–330 kcal per meal

Maintenance Phase

Stay locked in

-Serve over 80–100g cooked quinoa or a medium roasted sweet potato (~150 kcal added)

-Keep the full cashew crust for healthy fats — your body needs them at maintenance

-Add a side of roasted courgette or asparagus with lemon

-Keep the honey-mustard glaze intact — the small carb hit supports steady energy

-A handful of Beast Almonds (Beast Nutz & Seedz) on the side rounds out the meal

**Target total: ~580–650 kcal per meal
