Directions

What better way to enjoy venison than to douse it in tequila and throw it in a skillet to sizzle?

1. Use a Meat Slicer to slice your venison into steaks.
2. Next, use a Weston Jerky Slicer to slice the venison steaks into perfect strips.
3. Chop the cilantro, mint, and garlic.
4. Mix together the marinade ingredients in a large bowl. Mix the strips into the marinade, then drop the strips, with the marinade, into a Weston Vacuum Sealer bag and seal. Place the bag into the refrigerator overnight.
5. Slice the onion and peppers.
6. Heat skillet over high heat with a few tablespoons of avocado oil. Once hot, place onions and peppers into the skillet and roast until soft and blackened.
7. Remove and cover, to keep warm. Pour another tablespoon or two of avocado oil into the skillet. Place venison into the skillet, then turn the pieces immediately. Venison should be tender and pink in the middle, but charred on the outside. Serve immediately.
8. To serve: Wrap the venison, onions, and peppers into corn tortillas, and top with avocados, goat cheese, and mango salsa. Squeeze a lime over the top of the fajita. Place a dollop of chilomate sauce on top, if you like.
