Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Venison steaks
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 cup Butter, unsalted
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, finely chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon Crushed red pepper flakes
Instructions
Begin by preparing the herbed butter. In a small bowl, combine the unsalted butter, fresh parsley, fresh thyme, lemon juice, fresh rosemary, and crushed red pepper flakes. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Spoon the mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap, form it into a log shape, and wrap it tightly. Place the herbed butter in the refrigerator to chill until firm.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Pat the venison steaks dry with paper towels to remove any excess moisture. Brush each steak with olive oil and season with black pepper and garlic powder on both sides, pressing the seasonings gently into the meat.
Place the seasoned venison steaks on the preheated grill. Grill the steaks for approximately 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Adjust the cooking time as necessary based on the thickness of the steaks.
Once the steaks are appropriately cooked, remove them from the grill and allow them to rest on a plate for about 5 minutes. This resting period allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
While the steaks are resting, retrieve the herbed butter from the refrigerator and slice it into 1/2 inch thick medallions.
Serve the grilled venison steaks topped with a slice of herbed butter. As the butter melts, it will enhance the savory flavors of the venison, providing a deliciously aromatic finish.
