How to cook venison striploin properly

Preparation time: 5 minutesCooking time: 15 minutes

Ingredients

• 1 venison fillet (back)
• ¾ stick of butter
• 1 sprig fresh rosemary
• 1 garlic clove (crushed)
• S&P
• Smoked paprika (sweet/spicy)
• Garlic powder
• Sunflower oil

Instructions

1. Leave your meat at room temperature before cooking, as you want it to be at the same temperature inside and out for even cooking.
2. Season generously with S&P, garlic powder and paprika.
3. Brown the loin in oil in a cast-iron skillet over high heat. Brown each side quickly, it should only take 2 to 4 minutes per side.
4. Reduce heat to low, add butter, rosemary and garlic clove. Tilt the pan so that the butter spills over one side and baste the loin with the hot butter, turning the meat every few seconds for even cooking. Cook until you reach the internal temperature of your choice, but we recommend not exceeding the medium cooking temperature (135°F).
5. Remove the loin and let it rest on a rack over a baking tray for 10 minutes before carving.
6. Slice the meat, add salt and two spoonfuls of hot butter.
