Ingredients
- 12 ounces Deer steak
- 2 cups Cooked white rice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1.5 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
- 2 stalks Green onion
- 2 tablespoons Water
Directions
Step 1
Pat the deer steak dry with paper towels. Cut into thin strips, approximately 1/2-inch thick.
Step 2
In a small bowl, combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the deer steak strips.
Step 3
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Step 4
Once the oil is hot, add the deer steak strips to the skillet in a single layer. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until browned. Remove the steak to a plate and set aside.
Step 5
In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the remaining olive oil along with the butter. Allow the butter to melt thoroughly.
Step 6
Stir in the soy sauce and 2 tablespoons of water, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let the sauce simmer for 1 minute.
Step 7
Return the cooked deer steak strips to the skillet, tossing them in the sauce. Let cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the steak is heated through and coated in the sauce.
Step 8
While the steak finishes cooking, prepare your serving plates with 1 cup of cooked white rice on each plate.
Step 9
Spoon the pepper deer steak strips over the rice, making sure to pour any extra sauce from the skillet on top.
Step 10
Garnish with finely sliced green onions for a fresh pop of flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
