This is my all time favorite... I serve it with mash potatoes and green beans. the sauce makes an excellent 'gravy' for the potatoes. When I don't have deer meat, I use London broil.

Provided by Mallory Williams

Categories     Wild Game

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 cup cooked white or brown rice
4 green bell peppers, halved and seeded
1 pound ground venison
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced, divided
1 teaspoon dried basil
1 teaspoon italian seasoning
1 teaspoon salt

4 medium tomatoes, diced
1 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese

  • 1. 1,Preheat oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
  • 2. 2,Place the peppers cut-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Roast 25 to 30 minutes or until tender and skin starts to brown.

  • 4. Spoon in the cooked rice, tomatoes, and the remainder of the green onions and stir until heated through. Remove from heat,mix in the feta cheese, and spoon the mixture into the pepper halves
  • 5. Return to the oven for 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of venison. For braising, stewing, or slow-cooking, use tougher cuts like the shoulder, neck, or shank. For grilling, roasting, or pan-frying, choose more tender cuts like the loin, tenderloin, or backstrap.
  • Marinate the venison. Marinating helps to tenderize the meat and add flavor. Use a marinade made with acidic ingredients like vinegar, lemon juice, or yogurt, as well as herbs, spices, and aromatics.
  • Cook the venison properly. Venison is a lean meat, so it is important to cook it properly to avoid drying it out. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the meat is cooked to the desired doneness.
  • Let the venison rest before serving. After cooking, let the venison rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Venison is a delicious and versatile meat that can be used in a variety of dishes. By following these tips, you can ensure that your venison dishes are always flavorful and tender. So next time you have some venison, don't be afraid to experiment with different recipes and cooking methods. You may be surprised at how delicious venison can be!
