Ingredients
- 1 pound ground venison
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons avocado oil
- 4 whole lettuce leaves
- 1 whole sliced avocado
- 1 whole sliced tomato
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground venison, finely chopped onion, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, freshly ground black pepper, and coconut aminos.
Step 2
Mix the ingredients gently with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the patties tough.
Step 3
Divide the seasoned meat mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 inch thick.
Step 4
Heat the avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the venison patties to the skillet.
Step 5
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are well-browned and cooked through to your desired level of doneness.
Step 6
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes on a plate before assembling.
Step 7
To assemble, place each venison patty in a lettuce leaf then top with sliced avocado and tomato. You can add additional toppings like sliced onion or pickles, provided they are Whole30-compliant.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your juicy venison patties!
