Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 18

aluminum foil
1 pound ground venison
4 ounces mild Italian sausage
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
½ cup Italian seasoned bread crumbs
1 egg
2 tablespoons dry white wine
1 teaspoon minced garlic
½ teaspoon dried basil
½ teaspoon dried oregano
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 (8 ounce) package sliced baby portobello mushrooms
2 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves removed
2 cups half-and-half
3 tablespoons stone-ground mustard
1 tablespoon cornstarch
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a cooling rack on top.
  • Combine ground venison, Italian sausage, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, egg, white wine, garlic, basil, and oregano in a large bowl; stir until well combined. Scoop meat mixture from the bowl and form into 2-inch balls. Place meatballs on top of the cooling rack.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until meatballs are cooked through, about 25 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
  • As soon as meatballs go in the oven, begin the sauce: heat olive oil and butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and thyme; cook until mushrooms are dark brown in color, about 10 minutes.
  • Whisk together half-and-half, mustard, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Pour half-and-half mixture over mushrooms, reduce heat, simmer for 5 minutes, stirring continually. Turn heat off, season with salt and pepper, and let sit to thicken.
  • Remove meatballs from the oven, transfer to a serving plate, and drizzle with mustard sauce.

VENISON MEATBALLS

"I learned to cook game while my husband was a forestry student," recalls Sheila Reed from Fredericton, New Brunswick. "We lived off the land as much as possible. I still enjoy these savory meatballs in a slightly sweet barbecue sauce. I make a big batch for an annual pool party and there are never any left."
