Ingredients

  • 600 g venison steaks (about 150-200g each)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 tsp fresh rosemary chopped
  • 1 tsp fresh thyme chopped
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 1/4 cup red wine (optional)
  • 1/4 cup beef or vegetable broth
  • 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • Fresh parsley for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  • Take the venison steaks out of the refrigerator and let them sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This will help them cook more evenly.
  • In a bowl, combine the olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme. Rub this mixture all over the venison steaks.
  • Season the steaks with salt and black pepper to taste. Let them marinate for at least 15-20 minutes.
  • Heat a skillet or frying pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the pan.
  • Once the butter has melted and the pan is hot, add the marinated venison steaks.
  • Sear the steaks for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your steaks more well-done. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the steaks and your desired level of doneness.
  • Transfer the cooked steaks to a plate and cover them with aluminum foil to keep them warm.
  • In the same skillet, add the red wine (if using) and deglaze the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  • Add the beef or vegetable broth, balsamic vinegar, and honey to the skillet. Stir well and let it simmer for a few minutes until the sauce has reduced and thickened slightly.
  • If needed, adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper to taste.
  • Pour the pan sauce over the cooked venison steaks.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
  • Serve the venison steaks with your favorite side dishes, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a salad.
    Enjoy your delicious venison steak with a flavorful pan sauce!
