Venison Salisbury Steak Meatballs are a mouthwatering home cooked comfort food in my opinion. I changed the rules on my Salisbury steak recipe this time around and formed meatballs instead of meat patties. A ground wild game changing dinner idea.
To start, I seasoned a pound of ground venison with some simple ingredients that add a lot of flavor to the meat. Ingredients like crushed seasoned croutons, minced garlic, egg, Dijon mustard, parsley and salt. After mixing everything together, I formed 12 meatballs of equal size and set aside.
Then I sizzled up shiitake mushrooms, sliced cipollini onions and garlic in a blend of butter and olive oil. If you don’t have access to shiitake mushrooms or cipollini onions, substitute with sliced baby bella mushrooms and a small sweet onion. After the mushrooms and onions are caramelized, I removed them from the skillet and added the meatballs cooking until browned. Super quick and easy.
Next step, I added another tablespoon of butter and a few tablespoons of flour – stirring to form a past before slowly stirring in a cup and a half of beef broth creating a simple gravy. Stir stir stir and reduce the heat. For the finale, I set the meatballs into the gravy and added the mushrooms and onions cooking until the meatballs were done.
Serve these tender mouthwatering Venison Salisbury Steak Meatballs over a quinoa/rice blend. Hands down a drool worthy dish to celebrate the fruits of our labor!
