  • Prep 50 min
  • Total 50 min
  • Servings 6

Ingredients

  • 1 can (16 1/2 oz) purple plums, drained
  • 1 can (6 oz) frozen lemonade concentrate, thawed
  • 1/4 cup butter or margarine
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped (1/4 cup)
  • 1/4 cup chili sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 6 venison steaks, 1 inch thick (about 4 oz each)

Steps

  • 1
    In blender, place plums and lemonade concentrate. Cover and blend on medium speed until smooth; set aside.
  • 2
    In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Cook onion in butter about 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Stir plum mixture and remaining ingredients into onions. Heat to boiling; reduce heat. Simmer uncovered 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 3
    Set oven control to broil. Grease broiler pan (without rack). Place venison steaks in broiler pan. Spoon 1/2 cup of the plum sauce evenly over venison.
  • 4
    Broil venison with tops about 4 inches from heat about 10 minutes or until light brown. Turn venison; spoon 1/2 cup of the plum sauce evenly over venison. Broil about 5 minutes longer or until rare to medium-rare doneness. Heat remaining sauce; serve with venison.

  • Now you can enjoy venison more often than you thought possible. Specialty grocery stores and butcher shops often carry venison from farm-raised sources. The same doneness guidelines used for beef steaks can be used for venison steaks.
  • For easier cleanup, line the broiler pan with foil.
