Rabbit Gumbo

• 1 small onion, chopped
• 1 small green pepper, chopped
• 1/4 cup canola oil
• 1 dressed rabbit (about 3 pounds), cut into pieces
• 1/2 pound smoked sausage, halved and cut into 1/4-inch slices
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/2 cup sliced okra
• Hot cooked rice

1. In a Dutch oven, saute onion and green pepper in oil until tender. Add rabbit and enough water to cover. Cover and simmer for 1-1/2 to 2 hours or until meat is very tender.
2. Add the sausage, salt, thyme, pepper and cayenne. Simmer, uncovered, for 15-20 minutes. Remove rabbit. When cool enough to handle, remove meat from bones; discard bones. Cut meat into bite-size pieces; return to pan. Stir in okra; bring to a boil. Serve in bowls over rice.
