Remove the breasts from the pheasants. Four breasts is enough for 2 people. Make sure all the sinews are removed. Place the breasts in the base of a shallow casserole dish. Chop the basil and crush the garlic. Add to the tomatoes and pour over the meat. Add a cup of water. Cover with lid or tin foil. Cook at 190 degrees or equivalent, for 60 - 70 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove pheasant and keep warm. Transfer the remaining liquid and reduce on a high heat by half, stirring all the time. Serve on a bed of rice or pasta.
