Method

Cooking Instructions

Prepare the Marinade

In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Marinate the Wild Boar

Rub the marinade over the wild boar meat, ensuring it is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Preheat the Oven

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Sear the Meat

In a large oven-safe skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the marinated wild boar on all sides until browned (about 4-5 minutes per side).

Add Fruits and Liquids

Add the dried apricots and cranberries to the skillet. Pour in the red wine and chicken broth, scraping any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet.

Bake the Dish

Cover the skillet with a lid or aluminum foil and transfer it to the preheated oven. Bake for 1.5 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and cooked through.

Serve

Remove from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes, then slice the wild boar and serve it with the apricot and cranberry sauce.
