Wild boar in the oven

Description

The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Before putting the meat in the oven, marinate it in the refrigerator. Use good quality red wine; it will tenderize the meat, add juiciness, and eliminate any unpleasant odor. Serve the meat whole or sliced into pieces, accompanied by fresh or cooked vegetables. The ready dish can now be served.
