Living here in the western U.S., we have an abundance of wild game. Here's one of our favorite recipes:
Wild Game Swiss Steak
1 � pounds boneless deer steak (or other big game steak) �-inch to 1-inch thick
1 16-ounce can stewed tomatoes
1 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 /4 teaspoon pepper (More to taste)
3 to 4 teaspoon bacon fat (Olive oil will work in a pinch)
3/4 cup water
1 teaspoon instant beef bouillon granules
1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon dried marjoram leaves
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
Trim meat; cut into serving-sized pieces. Pound to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness with meat mallet. On a sheet of waxed paper, mix flour and salt and pepper. Dip steaks in flour mixture, turning to coat. In large skillet, heat bacon fat or oil over medium heat. Add coated steaks; brown lightly on both sides. Fry in two batches if necessary.
In small mixing bowl, mix stewed tomatoes, water, bouillon granules, basil and marjoram; pour over steaks. Top meat and tomatoes with sliced onion. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat; cover, simmer over very low heat until meat is tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Skim fat if necessary. (We find it doesn't take tha tlong to cook, but suit yourself).
