Venison Chickpea Curry is not a fancy curry recipe. There are no elaborate spice pastes and steps. It’s bare bones, super fast, simple ingredients and damn tasty. Everyone in our family loves it!

Instructions
Heat a 4 quart or larger pot on medium high heat.
Drizzle in a bit of olive oil or another fat and swirl around.
Add the venison and onion to the pot and brown until cooked through.
Add the remaining ingredients.
Bring to a boil then turn down to a simmer and simmer for 20-30 minutes until thickened.
Serve over rice or with naan/pita for dipping in the sauce.
Notes
Crockpot Variation:Brown the ground meat and onion together. Put it and the remaining ingredients into the crockpot on low all day or high for half the day. You may want to add less stock to the crockpot version as it won’t boil off the same way. Maybe 1 cup?
