Prep time: 15 minutes | Cook time: 20 minutes | Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 1 lb venison, cut into rings
• 1/2 cup mustard
• 1/4 cup honey
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• Olive oil (for searing)
• Optional: Fresh herbs for garnish

Directions

1. Prep the Oven and Meat: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Season the venison rings evenly with the garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
2. Sear to Perfection: Heat a splash of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the venison rings just until they are beautifully browned on both sides.
3. Bake: Transfer the seared rings to a baking sheet and bake for 10 to 15 minutes until cooked through to your liking.
4. Sauce and Serve: While the meat bakes, whisk the mustard and honey together in a small bowl. Drizzle the sauce generously over the warm venison rings, garnish with fresh herbs if desired, and serve immediately.
