Flying Steak Sandwich

Pigeon gets a bad rap, but good wild country birds (not the mangy kind you see wandering around cities!) produce one of the most delicious and underrated meats in the world (as long as it's cooked medium rare). In the past, I've seared pigeon breast, put it inside some lovely bread and had people tell me it's the best steak sandwich they've ever had! So here's how it's done ... This makes a brilliant casual lunch, dinner or snack with a nice salad.
