Best 7 Venison Chops With Raspberry Balsamic Reduction Recipes

RASPBERRY VENISON SKILLET

Steps:

• Whisk together the raspberry vinaigrette, maple syrup, and soy sauce in a large bowl. Stir in the venison until well coated, and set aside.
• Bring the butter, olive oil, water, onions, and garlic to a boil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir until the onions have caramelized to a deep, golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Once the onions have turned dark golden brown, stir in the sugar, and cook 2 to 3 minutes more.
• Stir in the venison along with the marinade. Cook and stir until the venison is no longer pink in the center, about 5 minutes.

VENISON CHOPS WITH RASPBERRY & BALSAMIC REDUCTION

Steps:

• 1. If working with a rack, clean the silver skin off of the rack or the chops and cut into individual chops. 2. Purée the raspberries in a blender and strain through a fine mesh sieve. 3. Heat the oil in a pan and sear both sides over high heat and remove to a plate (Note that you are only coloring the surface of the venison - not cooking it through). Discard the oil. 4. Add the balsamic vinegar and reduce to a syrupy consistency, then add the raspberry purée. 5. Add the veal demi glace, reduce and place the chops back into the pan. 6. Cook the venison until medium rare (it should only take a minute or so). If necessary reduce the pan sauce to a consistency where it will coat the back of a spoon. Remove from the heat and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper (salt definitely not needed if using the substitute demi glace of beef base and wine). Place 2 chops on each plate, drizzle with the raspberry/balsamic reduction sauce and serve.

VENISON CHOPS WITH SHALLOTS AND CUMIN

Steps:

• Using a heavy skillet large enough to accommodate the rack of venison, fry the bacon. Drain strips on paper towel. Cut bacon in 1/2-inch pieces and set aside. Brush venison with some of the bacon fat. Leave 1 tablespoon of the bacon fat in the pan and discard the rest. Mix 1 1/2 teaspoons of the cumin with the pepper and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Rub the spices on the meat and let rest 1 hour. Cook the shallots in the remaining fat in the pan on medium heat until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove shallots from the pan and set aside.
• Heat oven to 425 degrees. Using the skillet or another pan big enough to hold the rack of venison, place the venison in the pan, bone side down, and roast 20 minutes. Test with an instant-read thermometer. It should register 115 degrees for medium rare to rare. If more doneness is desired, leave the venison in the oven another 5 minutes. But it will start to toughen if cooked more than medium rare.
• Remove venison from the pan and place on a cutting board to rest while you prepare the sauce. Lightly toast the remaining 1/2 teaspoon cumin in the pan. Add the stock and the wine. Whisk in the mustard and thyme. Cook on medium high until the liquid has reduced to a scant 1/2 cup, just about covering the bottom of the pan. Lower heat and whisk in the butter bit by bit. Add additional salt if desired. Stir in the reserved bacon and shallots.
• Slice the rack into individual chops between the bones and arrange on a platter. Spoon the sauce with the shallots and bacon over the meat and serve.
