Method
Directions
-
1
Heat 2 tbsp of oil or ghee in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add bison and cook, stirring, until well-browned.
-
2
Remove from pot with a slotted spoon and set aside. Add remaining oil, onion, carrots, and celery to the pot, and cook, stirring often, until onion is translucent.
-
3
Add broth and bring to a boil. Add corn, potatoes, beans, bison, and rosemary. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and keep at a vigorous simmer until meat is tender and vegetables are cooked but still firm, about 25 minutes.
-
4
Remove cover and increase heat to medium. Cook uncovered until some of the broth evaporates and the mixture reaches the consistency of a very thick soup or thin stew, stirring often to prevent burning.
-
5
Remove rosemary sprigs, add salt and pepper to taste, and serve sprinkled with chopped parsley.
