I ate kangaroo tenderloin at a local restaurant. It is soooo tender and delicious, much like beef tenderloin, but w/ more flavor, IMO. Works for the broiler, too.

Categories     Wild Game

Time 15m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 kangaroo fillet
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon cooking oil
1/4 cup water
1/2 teaspoon green peppercorn
1/2 teaspoon cornflour

Steps:

  • Mix the cooking oil and salt on a plate and coat the fillet with the mixture.
  • Heat a fry pan over a medium heat.
  • Fry the fillet on one side until droplets of pink juice form on the surface.
  • Turn the fillet and repeat the process, then remove it from the pan and cover it with foil or a saucepan lid while you are making the sauce.
  • Crush the peppercorns roughly and place them in the hot pan.
  • Pour the water into the pan and stir to deglaze the pan and incorporate the remaining juices.
  • Mix the cornflour with a little water and stir it into the sauce, a little at a time, until the sauce thickens.
  • Serve the fillet with the sauce and a green salad.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of kangaroo meat: Kangaroo fillet is the most tender and flavorful cut, but it can be expensive. If you're on a budget, you can use kangaroo rump or round steak, which are less expensive but still very good.
  • Marinate the kangaroo meat: Marinating the kangaroo meat in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, and herbs, or you can get more creative with your marinade. Just be sure to marinate the meat for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
  • Cook the kangaroo meat over high heat: Kangaroo meat is a lean meat, so it's important to cook it over high heat to avoid overcooking it. You can grill, pan-fry, or roast kangaroo meat, but be sure to cook it to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit (57 degrees Celsius) for medium-rare, or 145 degrees Fahrenheit (63 degrees Celsius) for medium.
  • Let the kangaroo meat rest before serving: Once the kangaroo meat is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Kangaroo meat is a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional beef and pork. It's lean, high in protein, and low in fat. Kangaroo meat can be cooked in a variety of ways, but it's especially good when grilled, pan-fried, or roasted. If you're looking for a new and exciting meat to try, kangaroo is a great option.
