Description

This hearty deer heart and kidney stew transforms humble organ meats into a luxurious, comforting meal. The combination of slow-simmered game meat, aromatic onions, and robust red wine creates a deeply savory broth that is both earthy and elegant. Cream of mushroom soup adds a velvety thickness, binding the flavors together beautifully. Perfect for cold evenings or for hunters looking to use every part of the harvest, this dish offers a unique culinary experience. Serve it over fluffy rice or noodles to soak up every drop of the flavorful sauce. It is a testament to traditional cooking methods, delivering a satisfying, protein-rich dish that warms the soul and honors the ingredient.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Place the deer heart and kidneys in a large pot and cover them completely with lightly salted water.
  2. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the meats are tender, which may take 45-60 minutes.
  3. Remove the meats from the broth, allow them to cool, then slice into bite-sized pieces. Reserve 1 cup of the cooking broth.
  4. In a separate heavy-bottomed pot, melt the butter over medium heat.
  5. Add the minced onion and sauté until soft and transparent, about 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in the sliced heart and kidney, the can of mushroom soup, red wine, reserved broth, and remaining water.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
  8. Cover and let the stew simmer for 15-20 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
  9. Serve hot over noodles, rice, or wild rice.
