Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Venison steaks
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 4 tablespoons Butter (low-fat)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon zest
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Rub the venison steaks with olive oil and sprinkle the spice mixture evenly over both sides of the steaks.
Drizzle lemon juice over the seasoned steaks and let them marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
While the grill is heating, make the herbed butter: In a mixing bowl, combine low-fat butter, parsley, rosemary, thyme, and lemon zest. Mix well and set aside.
Once the grill is ready, place the venison steaks on the grill. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
Remove the steaks from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat tender.
Top each steak with a spoonful of the herbed butter before serving. As it melts, it will enhance the flavor of the venison.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides and enjoy a delectable low-fat meal.
