This is one of my favorite weeknight dinners because it comes together in under an hour and tastes absolutely restaurant quality. Grilled rabbit is such a lean, tender meat that takes beautifully to simple seasoning and high heat, and I love pairing it with cassava, which is naturally gluten free and packed with resistant starch for sustained energy. Fresh rosemary, thyme, parsley, and cilantro brighten everything up without requiring any complicated techniques. You'll have a stunning, healthy meal on the table faster than you'd expect.
