Pigeon meat is one of the healthiest poultry meat available and the taste is similar to wild game birds. But it is not as abundant as chicken meat that you can buy in wet markets or supermarkets that are already dressed. Most of the time you have to buy live pigeons. But you can also substitute it with quail meat if there isn’t any pigeon available.
