Subj : Alt Turkey - 19 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Mon Nov 14 2022 16:24:00 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Spice-Rubbed Venison Loin w/Red Wine Sauce Categories: Game, Herbs, Vegetables, Wine Yield: 6 servings 2 tb Malted milk powder 2 tb Poppy seeds 2 ts Dried thyme 1 1/2 ts Fresh ground black pepper 2 ts Kosher salt; more to taste 6 tb Unsalted butter 2 1/2 lb Venison loin; trimmed, - halved crosswise 4 sm Shallots; peeled; in thin - wedges 3 Sprigs fresh thyme 2 Whole cloves 1/2 c Dry, robust red wine 2/3 c Chicken stock Set the oven @ 400-|F/205-|C. In a small bowl, mix the malt powder, poppy seeds, thyme, and black pepper. Transfer the seasoning mixture to a large platter and add the venison. Roll the meat in the spices, patting the meat with your hands to help the seasonings adhere. Let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. In a large, ovenproof skillet over medium heat, melt 4 tablespoons butter. Once hot and bubbling, add the venison pieces, and lower the heat slightly. Cook, rotating the meat one-quarter of the way about every 3 minutes, about 9 minutes total (meat will be only browned on three of its four sides). Add the shallots, thyme, and the whole cloves to the pan, stirring briefly to coat in the butter. Rotate the meat to its final side and cook until browned, about 3 minutes. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat reads 125-#, about 10 minutes. Remove the venison to a large platter and let rest. Meanwhile, place the skillet back over medium-high heat, and add the red wine. Bring to a boil, then let cook until reduced by half, about 3 minutes. Add the chicken stock and bring the mixture back to a boil; cook until it is bubbling around the shallots, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and cook, stirring or swirling the pan occasionally, until the butter is melted and the sauce is thickened to the consistency of heavy cream, about 2 minutes. Stir in any juices that have accumulated on the venison platter. Transfer the venison to a cutting board, and clean the platter. Pour the sauce through a fine-mesh sieve onto the clean platter. Slice the venison into 1" thick medallions and transfer to the platter with the sauce. Serve immediately. By: Amy Thielen RECIPE FROM: https://www.saveur.com Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives MMMMM ....
