Ingredients

Ingredients List
  • 2 tablespoons shallot, minced

  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic

  • 3 tablespoons blackberry jam

  • 1 cup red wine

  • 1 cup beef stock

  • 1 tablespoon butter

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

  • 4 (1/2 pound) venison steaks

  • 12 fresh blackberries


Directions

  1. Heat shallots, garlic, blackberry jam, and red wine in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Simmer until reduced to 1/2 cup of liquid, about 15 minutes. Strain liquid through a fine mesh sieve and set aside. Heat the beef broth in a separate skillet over medium-high heat until reduced by half, 15 to 20 minutes. Whisk the two reduced sauces together, and stir in the butter. Season with salt and pepper.

  2. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the venison steaks until they are beginning to firm, and are hot and slightly pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (65 degrees C). Serve the steaks with the sauce and a few fresh blackberries.

Cook's Note

If sauce is too thin dissolve 1 teaspoon cornstarch in 1 tablespoon wine, stir into sauce and bring to a boil.
