Wash rabbit pieces and baste with lemon juice. Heat oil and butter in a pan and brown rabbit. Remove rabbit from the heat and put in an oven-casserole. In the same pan, brown half the quantity of sliced leeks, garlic, rosemary and tomatoes. Cook 2 to 3 minutes. Pour white wine in, maple syrup and chicken broth. Season. Simmer 5 minutes and pour over rabbit. Cover and cook in the oven at 350°F (180°C), about 1 hour. In the pan, brown the other half of the sliced leeks, with mushrooms and clementines 2 to 3 minutes. Add to rabbit and continue cooking in the oven until the flesh peels easily; about 10 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.
