Okay, I've talked about it enough....here's the recipe. You can use any cut of red meat you like. The recipe called for ribeye steaks but since I had a beautiful tenderloin I just couldn't resist.


Brown your meat in a skillet with a little olive oil over medium heat. If you want to finish it in the oven a bit, then do so. I let mine bake in the oven in a glass dish on 350 while I finished the sauce. If you still want it mooing then go for it.

Cook mushrooms (I used ****ake but you could really use any type) and 1-2 tsp Thyme in the skillet with the drippings for 3-5 minutes. Remove from pan. Add 3/4 cup balsamic vinegar to the skillet for 7-10 minutes on medium-high heat until it reduces. Stir in 2 TBSP butter, the reserved mushrooms and salt to taste....(I used about 1/4 tsp) Stir to combine and immediately serve on top of desired cut of meat.

DO NOT put the meat in the microwave....a la my husband. :smack
 
Thanks for posting that Lori! I know what I'm having for dinner tomorrow night!
 
Sounds good, that's pretty much what we had for breakfast this morning, only we used ribeyes. Steak was SOOOO good after not having it in MONTHS! It was on sale :)
 
Sounds gourmet! :drool I'm always looking for new recipes for venison. Thanks for sharing!
 
This recipe makes me bring up to my husband how many deer there are in the neighborhood.....
 
One of the ladies at storytime this morning said she had 5 in the front yard this morning and she thought of me!

I'd love to put one more big doe in the freezer but I have to eat one of my 28lb turkeys to make room first! :lol:
