Venison Round Steak

Kate Schat
Venison round steak is quickly cooked in browned butter on a skillet. This is the best way to showcase that amazing wild game flavour.

Ingredients
  

  • 2 medium sized venison round steaks at room temperature
  • ½ cup butter 1 stick
  • 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon pepper or to taste

Instructions
 

  • Melt your butter into frying pan on medium heat. We are going to brown the butter to add a richer, nutty flavour that browning butter brings out. So continue to stir butter as it browns and don’t let it smoke. Reduce heat if necessary.
  • When it’s ready, add your steak with heat back on medium if you reduced it. The butter should sizzle and pop, so be careful to not get any splashes in the eyes or on the skin!
  • Add half your salt and pepper on the steaks and let it cook for 3-4 minutes. Flip and add remainder of salt and pepper for another 3 minutes.
  • We like our steaks medium rare, so be careful to cook it to the way you like it. Best to err on the side of underdone, as overcooked steak is not the best.

Notes

  • Serve with more butter if desired.
  • Medium rare is 130-135°F.
