Venison Chops In Mushroom Gravy Recipes

THE MERCHANT OF VENISON CHOPS WITH RED WINE MUSHROOM SAUCE AND BULGUR PORRIDGE

Steps:

• Rinse venison chops and pat dry with paper towels. In a coffee grinder dedicated to spices or with a mortar and pestle, grind the juniper berries, coriander seeds, star anise, salt and peppercorns together into a powder. Rub all sides of the chops with the spice mixture. Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large saute pan (deep enough to accommodate the chops and sauce) and sear the chops, leaving undisturbed for 2 minutes on each side to allow the spices to integrate into the surface of the meat. Remove chops to a utility platter.
• In the same pan, over medium-high heat, saute the shallots until translucent. Add the mushrooms and cook until they give up their juices. Add the wine and let cook for about 5 minutes. Then reduce heat to medium-low, return the chops to the pan, cover, and let cook until the chops are tender, about 35 minutes. Transfer the chops to a platter and increase the heat under the pan of mushrooms and sauce and allow to reduce by two-thirds.
• While the chops are cooking and the sauce is reducing, prepare the bulgur porridge which was traditionally served with venison as a digestive aid. Because it is pre-steamed, it can be soaked in boiling water to make it meal-ready. Put bulgur and salt in a mixing bowl. Add 2 1/2 cups boiling water, cover and let stand for 30 minutes.
• To serve, place some bulgur porridge in the middle of each serving plate. Top with a venison chop and spoon mushrooms and sauce over and around.

VENISON WITH SHERRY-MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Combine 1/2 cup flour, sage, salt, and pepper in a resealable bag, set aside. Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a large pan over medium heat. Stir in onion and cook until almost soft. Add mushrooms, and continue cooking until soft. Remove from pan.
• Turn heat to medium-high and melt 2 tablespoons of butter in pan. Toss the venison steaks in the seasoned flour and shake off the excess. Sear venison in butter for 6 to 7 minutes per side and remove.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, and melt the remaining tablespoon of butter. Whisk in 1 tablespoon of flour, followed by the sherry and water. Return the vegetables and meat to the pan. Increase heat, and simmer for 15 minutes.

VENISON WITH MUSHROOM-WINE SAUCE

Steps:

• 1. Mix the flour, salt, and pepper in a shallow dish. Dredge the meat in the seasoned flour. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Cook the venison for 2 minutes per side, and then transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
• 2. Reduce the heat in the skillet to medium, add the shallots and garlic, and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the mushrooms and sauté for about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste. Add the wine and chicken broth, raise heat to medium-high, and cook for 1 minute more. Return the meat to the pan and simmer until heated, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

VENISON WITH MUSHROOM GRAVY ROAST

Steps:

• Pan fry the venison (slowly with a low flame) in a lightly buttered pan until well browned. (I thoroughly cook my venison, and apply butter coatings to top sides to prevent drying the meat as it cooks. However, you can cook to your own preferences -- keep in mind this is a wild dish, hence my thorough initial cooking).
• Add 1 tablespoons butter to separate pan to sauté following 4 ingredients (yellow onions through mushrooms). Sauté yellow onions in pan first, this will allow caramelization, and a full rich flavour of onions. After onions become tender, add the green pepper, red pepper, and mushrooms. Sauté all ingredients above until tender, and onions are slightly caramelized. Add 1/4 cup chopped green onions to sauté pan and simmer 1-2 more minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• After all ingredients are sautéed, remove from heat and place 1/2 evenly into a casserole dish creating a layer across the bottom of the dish. After tenderloins are cooked, remove from pan, and place on top of the bed of sautéed vegetables. Cover tenderloin with the remaining sautéed vegetables. Finally cover everything evenly with 2 cans of Cream of Mushroom Soup. The soups will create a wonderful gravy as it is cooked in the oven. Cover casserole dish with foil, and place into preheated oven. Bake for 45 minutes, or until gravy is slightly golden brown.
• Remove from oven when finished and garnish with remaining 1/4 cup chopped green onions. Serve immediately to awaiting guests and family members!
