Ingredients:
- 4 Tbsp. avocado or olive oil, divided
- 1/4 cup + 3 Tbsp. soy sauce (or coconut aminos for soy free), divided
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1 lb. thinly sliced venison steak (I used leg meat)
- 2 bell peppers, julienned (I used a red and orange)
- 3 carrots, peeled, halved and julienned
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/2 head broccoli, chopped
- optional – 8 oz. water chestnuts, drained
- 2 Tbsp. rice or white wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp. honey
- Rice, green onion, sesame seeds and extra lime wedges for serving
How to cook:
- Before cooking, marinate your meat for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. To marinate, in a bowl with a lid or zip top bag, combine 3 tablespoons of the oil, 1/4 cup of the soy sauce/coconut aminos, the lime juice and the venison. Make sure all of the meat is coated and set it in the fridge until you’re ready to cook.
- When you’re ready to cook, heat the remaining oil in a large saucepan or wok over medium high heat. When the pan is hot, add the bell peppers, carrots and onion and saute for about 5 minutes, or until they start to soften.
- Then, add the marinated venison, garlic, broccoli, water chestnuts if using, remaining soy sauce, vinegar, and honey. Saute for about 5-8 minutes, until the venison is browned on the outside and the broccoli is softened a bit. Don’t overcook it, you want the venison tender. Remove from the heat when done.
- When you’re ready to serve, spoon the mixture over rice and top with sesame seeds, lime and green onion. Enjoy!

- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large saucepot. Add the bacon and cook over medium heat until brown and crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Next pat the venison chunks dry with a paper towel and salt and pepper to taste. Brown the deer meat on all sides. Then remove with a slotted spoon.
- Add the onions, garlic, and carrots to the pot. Cook and stir for several minutes until the onions have softened, then add the mushrooms and cook another 5-10 minutes.
- Add all meat back to the pot, followed by: brandy, wine, stock, and tomato paste. Add 1 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper and stir well. Then add the bouquet garni and cover.
- Bring to a boil, then lower the heat and simmer for approximately 3 hours until the venison is very tender.
- In the last hour of simmering, preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Place the mini potatoes on a rimmed baking sheet and toss with 2 tablespoons oil, salt and pepper.
- Roast for 35-45 minutes until tender, tossing once in the middle.
- Once the venison is tender, mix half a stick of softened butter with 1/4 cup of flour. Use a fork to press into a paste.
- Slowly stir the butter mixture into the stew until the desired thickness in reached—I like to add it all!
- Salt and pepper to taste if needed.
