Chipotle-Marinated Quail

  1. Cook first 4 ingredients in a large skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, 4 to 5 minutes or until toasted; cool. Process toasted spices in a blender until finely ground.
  2. Process chipotle peppers in a blender until smooth. Measure 2 tablespoons puree, reserving remainder for another use. Stir together 2 tablespoons chipotle puree, spice mixture, wine, and next 4 ingredients.
  3. Pour chipotle puree mixture into a large zip-top plastic freezer bag; add quail. Seal and chill 3 hours, turning every 30 minutes.
  4. Remove quail from marinade, reserving marinade. Sprinkle quail with 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  5. Brown quail, in batches, in hot oil in a large heavy-duty skillet over medium-high heat about 6 minutes on each side, adding more oil, if necessary. Drain on paper towels.
  6. Bring quail and reserved marinade to a boil in skillet. Reduce heat; cover and simmer 25 minutes or until done.
