Recipe information

  • Yield

    serves 4

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups, plus 2 tablespoons allpurpose flour
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Eight 4-ounce venison steaks, cubed
1 teaspoon The Lady’s House
Seasoning
1 teaspoon The Lady’s Seasoned
Salt
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
4 cups hot water
1/2 teaspoon Accent (optional)
1 bunch green onions, or 1 medium yellow onion, sliced

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Combine 1 1/2 cups flour and 1/4 teaspoon of the black pepper. Sprinkle one side of meat with the House Seasoning and the other side with the Seasoned Salt. Dredge the meat in the flour mixture. Heat 1/2 cup oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high heat, add two of the venison steaks, and fry until nice and brown, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Repeat with the remaining steaks, adding up to 1/4 cup oil, as needed.

    Step 2

    When all the steaks are cooked, make the gravy: Add the 2 tablespoons of flour to the pan drippings; stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and the salt. Stir until the flour is medium brown and the mixture is bubbly. Slowly add the water and the Accent (if using), stirring constantly. Return the steaks to the skillet and bring to a boil; reduce the heat, place the onions on top of the steaks, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
