Directions

For the Stew:

  • In a Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium high heat. Add bison meat, and allow to brown – approximately 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  • Season with allspice, and cinnamon. Add onion, carrots, jalapeño and garlic and continue cooking for another 5 minutes. Add the rum, and allow to cook for another minute or two. Add all remaining ingredients. Cover with lid, and place Dutch oven in a preheated 375 degree grill (or oven).

  • Allow the stew to cook for 1 and a half hours, until the meat is fork tender. Remove lid, and continue cooking until the stew is reduced to your liking, stirring occasionally. Serve over green rice and lentils.

Green Rice and Lentils:

  • In a Dutch oven, add lentils, rice, salt and pepper, olive oil, onions, garlic, and bay leaves.

  • In a blender, combine coconut milk, stock, cilantro, and spinach. Add to Dutch oven and stir. Put the lid on the Dutch oven, and place in a preheated 375 degree grill (or oven) for 15 minutes.
