What are the benefits of eating venison?
Diving into the world of venison, you’ll find it’s not just a tasty choice but also a powerhouse of nutritional benefits. Venison stands out as a lean source of protein, offering all the muscle-building benefits without the extra fat that comes with other red meats. It’s also a treasure trove of essential vitamins and minerals, like B vitamins, which keep our metabolism ticking, and iron, which keeps our blood robust and healthy. Not to forget, it’s a good source of zinc, supporting our immune system and helping our bodies to heal.
If you’re keeping an eye on your heart health or managing your weight, venison has your back with its lower saturated fat and cholesterol levels, plus those omega-3 fatty acids that are famed for their heart-healthy properties. For the eco-conscious among us, choosing venison, especially from wild or sustainably farmed sources, can be a nod towards ethical and environmentally friendly eating. And if you’re navigating the challenges of food allergies or intolerances, venison might just be a welcome hypoallergenic option to explore. So, venison doesn’t just bring a unique and rich flavor to the table, but also a host of health and ethical benefits, making it a worthy addition to our meals.
Ingredients
For the Breakfast Boat:
1 pound ground beef (or venison)
2 tbsp diced red bell peppers
2 tbsp diced yellow bell peppers
2 tbsp diced sweet onion
3 slices cheddar cheese
2 eggs
1 14oz sourdough loaf of bread
Honey Sriracha Aioli Sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup honey
3 tbsp sriracha
2 tsp garlic paste
Garnish:
Instructions:
Preparing the Venison Mixture:
Start by preparing the venison mixture. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef (or venison) with diced red and yellow bell peppers, sweet onion, and a teaspoon each of salt and black pepper. Ensure that the ingredients are well mixed and set aside for the next steps.
Crafting the Bread Boat:
Moving on to the bread boat, begin by slicing the top off the sourdough loaf and carefully hollowing it out to create a boat-like shape. Once hollowed, layer the inside with three slices of cheddar cheese and generously fill it with the previously prepared venison mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed within the bread.
Cooking the Venison:
Now, let’s cook the venison. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add 2 tablespoons of oil. Sear the venison mixture until it’s nicely browned, ensuring it’s cooked through but still juicy. Meanwhile, preheat your grill or oven to 275 degrees. Place the prepared bread boat inside and allow it to cook until the venison reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees, ensuring it’s safely cooked through.
Preparing the Sauce:
While the venison is cooking, let’s prepare the honey sriracha aioli sauce. In a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise, honey, sriracha, and garlic paste, mixing until well blended. Place the sauce in the refrigerator to chill, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Assembling and Serving:
Finally, it’s time to assemble and serve your venison breakfast boat. Once the venison is cooked to perfection, top it with two fried eggs, ensuring they’re cooked to your liking. Sprinkle some freshly chopped chives for a burst of color and freshness, and generously drizzle the chilled aioli sauce over the top. Place the sliced bread top back on, slice the entire boat into three equal parts, and voila! Your hearty, flavorful Venison Breakfast Boat Bread is ready to be enjoyed!
Notes
Feel free to adjust the spiciness of the sauce to suit your palate and explore with additional veggies or different types of cheese for a new flavor twist. Ensure to monitor the venison’s internal temperature to achieve the perfect cook and enjoy your wholesome, satisfying meal!
