Steps:
- Preheat the oven's broiler and set the oven rack at about 6 inches from the heat source. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
- Warm the olive oil and garlic in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes to infuse the flavor of the garlic into the olive oil. Place the bread crumbs into a mixing bowl, and pour the oil mixture overtop. Stir the parsley, and Parmesan cheese into the bread crumb mixture until evenly blended. Press the venison cubes into the bread crumb mixture to coat, and place onto the prepared baking sheet. Make sure the venison pieces are not touching.
- Broil in the oven until the bread crumbs are golden, and the venison has turned from red to pink in the center, or to your desired degree of doneness, about 6 minutes. Turn the cubes occasionally as they cook.
- Divide the arugula onto 4 dinner plates, and top with the broiled venison. Squeeze a quarter of a lemon over each plate to serve.

GRILLED VENISON BITES (DEER BALLS) (CAJUN)
When you serve these up, the joke is; you have to kill a lot of deer to get this many ;o). Of course, they aren't really deer family jewels--they are actually bite size pieces of deer back strap or tenderloin. I got this recipe from a Cajun gentleman I hunt with in Haughton LA named Claude. I "guarunteeee", even people who say they don't like venison will eat a plate full of these. I prefer to use Tony Cachere's Cajun seasoning, thin cut bacon, zesty Italian dressing, and cook them over mesquite, but any wood or charcoal will do. Enjoy!

Steps:
- Cut venison into bite size bits.
- Cut bacon into 3-4 inch pieces. You may even want to cut the bacon strips in half, length-wise first, depending on the width of the bacon.
- Wrap each chunk of meat with a piece of bacon, using a tooth pick to hold in place.
- Place wrapped venison in a plastic bag and cover with dressing. Marinate over night.
- Place marinated deer balls on plate and sprinkle with seasoning.
- Grill until bacon is crisp, turning often. I found the easiest way is to use a fish basket, that way you can turn them all over at once. Another way is to use a skewer. No mater what method you use, watch for flare ups, since the oil in the Italian dressing will cause quite a blaze if you don't keep an eye on it. I walked away one time to get a beer and when I came back my balls were burnt to a crisp.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of venison. A tenderloin or backstrap is ideal for venison bites, but you can also use a chuck roast or shoulder cut, if you braise it first.
- Marinate the venison. Marinating the venison in a flavorful marinade will help to tenderize it and add flavor. You can use a simple marinade made with olive oil, garlic, and herbs, or you can try a more complex marinade with ingredients like wine, vinegar, and spices.
- Cook the venison bites properly. Venison is a lean meat, so it's important not to overcook it. Cook the venison bites until they are just cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
- Serve the venison bites with your favorite dipping sauce. A horseradish sauce, a barbecue sauce, or a creamy mushroom sauce are all great options.
Conclusion:
Venison bites are a delicious and versatile appetizer or main course. They are easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With the right ingredients and a little bit of effort, you can create a dish that will impress your friends and family.
