Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Venison Steaks with Blackberry Wine Reduction.
Step 1
Begin by heating a saucepan over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Add minced shallots, garlic, blackberry jam, and red wine, stirring to combine.
Step 3
Allow the mixture to come to a gentle simmer, letting it reduce until you have approximately half a cup of rich liquid, which should take about 15 minutes.
Step 4
Once reduced, strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve and set the fragrant liquid aside.
Step 5
In a separate skillet, pour in the beef stock and heat it over medium-high heat, allowing it to reduce by half, which will take around 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 6
Once the stock has thickened, whisk it together with the blackberry sauce and stir in a generous pat of butter.
Step 7
Season the sauce with salt and pepper to your liking.
Step 8
Next, heat another skillet over medium-high heat and cook the venison steaks for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, ensuring they are firm yet slightly pink in the center, reaching an internal temperature of at least 145°F (65°C).
Step 9
To serve, plate the venison steaks and generously drizzle the luscious blackberry wine sauce over them.
Step 10
For a delightful finishing touch, garnish with fresh blackberries, adding a burst of color and flavor to your dish.
Step 11
Enjoy this exquisite combination that brings together the earthiness of venison and the sweetness of blackberries, creating a memorable dining experience.
