Ingredients
- 500g skunk meat (cleaned and prepared)
- 200g cockroaches (cleaned)
- 100g ants (fresh)
- 50g bumblebees (fresh)
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 lemon (juiced)
- 2 cups mixed greens (for serving)
Instructions
- Prep the Skunk: Begin by marinating the skunk meat. In a bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, thyme, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Add the skunk meat and let it marinate for at least 1 hour in the refrigerator.
- Cook the Skunk: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated skunk meat and cook for about 10-12 minutes, or until it's thoroughly cooked and browned on all sides. Remove from heat and let it rest.
- Prepare the Insects: In the same skillet, add a little more olive oil if necessary. Toss in the cleaned cockroaches and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are crispy. Add the fresh ants and bumblebees, cooking for an additional 2-3 minutes.
- Combine: Slice the rested skunk meat into bite-sized pieces and add it back to the skillet with the insects. Stir to combine all the ingredients and heat through for another 2 minutes.
- Serve: On a large platter, create a bed of mixed greens. Top with the skunk and insect mixture, ensuring an even distribution.
- Garnish: Optionally, you can garnish with additional fresh herbs or a drizzle of olive oil before serving.
