Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 egg
1 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons hot pepper sauce
2 pounds 1/2 inch thick venison steaks
½ cup cornmeal
½ cup seasoned bread crumbs

1 1/2 cups, plus 2 tablespoons allpurpose flour
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Eight 4-ounce venison steaks, cubed
1 teaspoon The Lady's House
Seasoning
1 teaspoon The Lady's Seasoned
Salt
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 cups hot water
1/2 teaspoon Accent (optional)
1 bunch green onions, or 1 medium yellow onion, sliced

Steps:

  • Combine 1 1/2 cups flour and 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper. Sprinkle one side of meat with the House Seasoning and the other side with the Seasoned Salt. Dredge the meat in the flour mixture.
