Never tried cooking pheasant, but if I did, I'd cook it like chicken or turkey.
(stuff it, roast it).

Is this a ready to cook pheasant from your local supermarket/meat shop or a game bird?  (Game birds need to be cleaned and hung for a couple of day to heighten the flavor.)

I found several recipes for pheasant in "The Gourmet Cookbook, Vol II" which sounded interesting, but more work then I would bother with.
You'd probably find more by googling for pheasant recipes.

My husband got two pheasants from a hunter friend and cooked them in the crockpot with some cream of mushroom or celery soup.  Supposedly some of the gaminess in the meat is reduced this way.  I can't tell you how they tasted, because when I saw the poor dead bird on my plate, I couldn't eat it.  They would have wild game cookbooks at your library.
