If by chance you don't feel like chicken tonight, maybe you're brave (and carnivorous) enough to try this recipe from yesterday's Times: wild boar with pappardelle. It may take a bit of effort to source the ingredients (the recommendations are customized for New Yorkers), but for Chicagoans there's also the soft option: head to Avec, developers of the dish, and let them make it for you.
