MARINATED BISON/BUFFALO STEAKS WITH SAUCE
I have never cooked bison before. My husband had buffalo burgers once and loved them. The local supermarket is selling loads of different wild game so I bought some bison steaks to try.

Steps:
- Combine all the marinade ingredients in a storage container or a Ziploc bag and refrigerate overnight.
- The next day remove steaks from marinade and strain marinade into a bowl and set to one side.
- Heat a small amount of olive oil in a pan to a medium high heat, add steaks to pan and cook for 1 minute each side to sear. Turn heat down to medium and cook for a further 5-6 minutes a side for medium rare. ( My steaks were about 1 inch thick probably 3-4 minutes a side for 3/4 inch).
- Cook longer for more well done steaks, just remember bison meat is very lean and will toughen up if over cooked.
- For the sauce.
- Heat olive oil in a pan, add shallots and saute until soft. Add wine, vinegar, stock, sugar and reserved marinade. Cook until mixture is quite hot, mix a small amount of water to cornflour. Pour cornflour into pan and stir until mixture boils and thickens serve immediately over steaks.
- I served mine with mashed sweet potatoes and garlic buttered vegetables.
- To serve slice steaks into strips and arrange on plate and pour sauce over.

Steps:
- Season bison steaks with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Heat oil in a skillet over high heat.
- Sear steaks in oil until light brown on each side, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- *Note: the cooking time for the bison will vary depending on the thickness of your steaks. Bison should never be cooked more than medium because otherwise it will get too tough.
- When bison is done cooking, remove from skillet and keep warm.
- Add mushrooms, butter, and garlic to meat drippings in skillet.
- Cook about 5 minutes at medium high heat.
- Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle mushroom mixture with flour and stir well to ensure that all flour is absorbed.
- Add water, white wine, and Worcestershire sauce to the skillet. Stir well to incorporate liquids into mushroom mixture.
- Top steaks with mushroom sauce and enjoy!
