About this recipe

Wild boar steaks with herb lime marinade have become a real classic in our house. It all started with a gift from a hunter friend – a whole wild boar leg! At first I was a bit overwhelmed, but then I remembered a recipe from my grandma, who always knew how to prepare game perfectly. However, I added a fresh, modern twist, inspired by South American Chimichurri sauces. The quality of the meat is, of course, crucial. Wild boar has a strong, slightly gamey taste, but it shouldn't be too dominant. The leg is a rather lean piece, so it's important not to overcook it. The marinade plays a key role here: it not only provides flavor, but also tenderness. The parsley brings a fresh, green note, the garlic a pleasant spiciness and the red onion a light sweetness. Lime juice provides the necessary acidity, which breaks down the meat and enhances the aromas of the spices. Chili flakes add a subtle kick, while oregano and thyme provide a Mediterranean note. The bay leaf rounds it all off and gives the marinade a certain depth. When preparing in the Thermomix®, it is important not to chop the ingredients too finely. The parsley and garlic should not become a puree, but should still retain a certain texture. When mixing the marinade, it is advisable to add the olive oil gradually until the desired consistency is reached. It should not be too runny, but also not too thick. The marinade can be left to infuse in the refrigerator for a few hours, preferably overnight, so that the flavors can fully develop. If you like it vegetarian or vegan, you can of course also use the marinade for other dishes. It goes perfectly with grilled vegetables, tofu or Halloumi. Instead of wild boar, you can also use venison or deer. If you like it a little spicier, you can add more chili flakes or finely chop and mix in a fresh chili. To serve, I recommend cutting the steak into thin slices and drizzling with the Chimichurri sauce. Rosemary potatoes, a fresh salad or grilled vegetables go perfectly with it. A full-bodied red wine rounds off the dish perfectly. The marinade will keep in the refrigerator for a few days. The wild boar steaks can also be prepared and stored in the refrigerator. However, they should be at room temperature before frying so that they cook evenly. Leftovers of the fried meat can also be stored in the refrigerator and eaten cold or warm the next day.
