Let\u2019s dive straight into the ingredients and the preparation process.<\/p>\n<h4>Ingredients:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>4 venison steaks (approximately 6 ounces each)<\/li>\n<li>1\/4 cup olive oil<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar<\/li>\n<li>3 cloves garlic, minced<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, chopped<\/li>\n<li>1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon sea salt<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 teaspoon ground black pepper<\/li>\n<li>2 tablespoons unsalted butter<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h4>Preparation Steps:<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>Marinate the Venison Steaks:<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, rosemary, thyme, sea salt, and black pepper.<\/li>\n<li>Place the venison steaks in a resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Ensure that the steaks are evenly coated.<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Seal the bag or cover the dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for a deeper flavor.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Preheat and Prepare the Grill:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>Remove the venison steaks from the refrigerator about 30 minutes before you plan to grill, allowing them to come to room temperature.<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400\u00b0F or 200\u00b0C). If using a charcoal grill, ensure that the coals are glowing red with a light layer of ash.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Grill the Steaks:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>Once heated, lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.<\/li>\n<li>Place the venison steaks on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer if desired. Avoid overcooking as venison is a lean meat and can become dry.<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Use an instant-read thermometer to check the internal temperature aiming for 130\u00b0F (54\u00b0C) for medium-rare.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Rest the Steaks:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>Remove the steaks from the grill and place them on a platter.<\/li>\n<li>\n<p>Tent the steaks loosely with aluminum foil and let them rest for about 5-10 minutes. This helps the juices redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring a tender and juicy steak.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>\n<p><strong>Finish with Butter:<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<li>Just before serving, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.<\/li>\n<li>Drizzle the melted butter over the grilled venison steaks for added richness and flavor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>Recipe Summary:<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Total Calories per Serving:<\/strong> Approximately 350 calories<\/li>\n<li><strong>Preparation Time:<\/strong> 15 minutes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Marinating Time:<\/strong> 2 hours (minimum)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cooking Time:<\/strong> 10 minutes<\/li>\n<li><strong>Resting Time:<\/strong> 5-10 minutes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Enjoy your savory, Keto-friendly grilled venison steaks paired with a side of fresh greens or grilled vegetables.
