Preheat the oven to 220°C.

Toss potato wedges with olive oil, thyme, garlic, salt, and pepper in a baking dish.

Roast the potatoes for 20 minutes until golden and cooked through.

Combine cranberries, onion, orange juice, zest, honey, vinegar, and wine in a pan.

Boil, then simmer the sauce for 10 minutes until it reaches a pouring consistency.

Heat a heavy frying pan and season the pheasant breast with salt and pepper.

Melt butter and oil in the pan and sear the pheasant skin-side down for 3 minutes per side.

Serve the pheasant on a warm plate with potato wedges and cranberry sauce.
