About Dove, cooked (includes squab)
Dove and squab are small, richly flavored birds with dark, tender meat throughout, unlike chicken, which separates into a white-meat breast and darker legs. Protein is strong and fat is moderate, with no carbohydrate or fiber. The deep, almost beefy character of the meat responds well to quick high-heat cooking, such as pan-searing breast halves medium-rare, or slow braising for fall-off-the-bone leg meat. It occupies a niche between poultry and red meat both in flavor and culinary tradition, appearing in Italian, Chinese, and French preparations.
