Garlic Braised Frogs Legs

These little hoppers get a nice garlic bath after searing them. I used 6.5″ Lodge cast iron pans so everyone had their own serving. You can make them in a large pan and serve family style. They won’t last long. I served them along side roasted yukon gold potatoes and onions. Fast and Flavorful!
