• Olive oil - 2 tablespoons
• Onion - 1 medium, chopped
• Garlic - 2 cloves, minced

Steps

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes.

3. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the wild boar chunks. Brown the meat on all sides, about 8-10 minutes.
