Venison steak with port sauce

Let's get started!

1. For a delicious port sauce, first roughly chop the shallots. Sauté the shallots for about 5 minutes in a pan with 1 tablespoon of butter.
2. Mix the port and broth in a measuring cup and add to the shallots.
3. Crumble the gingerbread and add it. Keep stirring well until the gingerbread has dissolved. The port sauce should simmer for about 18 minutes until it has thickened slightly. Strain the sauce before pouring it over the venison steak.
4. Pat the venison steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides of the steak with salt and pepper. Heat a pan on the stove and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Sear both sides of the steak until browned.

Tip

Let the steak rest for 3-5 minutes so that the juices can distribute well throughout the meat. In the meantime, you can enjoy the leftover port.
