ELK CHILI RECIPE

Steps:

• In a large dutch oven, add the olive oil and minced garlic and warm over medium heat. Cook until the minced garlic is softened and fragrant. Add the ground elk meat to the pot and cook until about medium-rare.
• While the elk meat is cooking, cut the sweet potato and zucchini into large chunks, leaving the skin intact.
• Once the elk meat is at about medium-rare (some pink still visible), add in the sweet potato and zucchini, diced tomatoes, tomato sauce, salt, and pepper, and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, and then reduce down to low and let cook for about 30-40 minutes or until the vegetables are soft.
• Serve with your favorite chili toppings.
