Indonesian Venison with Peanut Sauce

Indonesian venison on skewers with peanut sauce
Cut venison while it is still a bit frozen and you will get beautiful thin slices.

When I make these Indonesian favorites my kids devour them almost before I can put them on the platter. These are great for summer parties such as the 4th of July or Memorial Day. The grilled venison is so flavorful and the peanut sauce is to die for.

  2. Stacy, another hit with the wife and kids!
    Pounded and sliced some venison round steaks we normally grill whole.
    Plated up the skewers on top of Linguine and drizzled the peanut sauce while adding a side of fresh whole green beans for the veggie.
    Leftover skewers made great breakfast sliders in a wheat bun for Monday morning.
    A lot of new and exciting ingredients in our kitchen.

    Thanks for adding new and interesting flavors to our menu.
