Prep Time: 15 minutes minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes minutes

Servings: 4

Ingredients

• 6-8 elk steaks, about 1/2 inch thick
• 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
• kosher salt and pepper
• 1/2 cup extra virgin olive oil
• 8 oz mushrooms, sliced
• 4 oz prosciutto, sliced
• 1/2 cup Sweet Marsala wine
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• fresh chives, chopped

Instructions

• Using a meat mallet, pound both sides of the steaks and season with salt and pepper. Add flour to a plate and lightly dredge each steak until coated evenly on both sides.
• Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. When the oil is hot set the floured steaks into the skillet and fry for 1-2 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove when done and set aside.
• Add the prosciutto to the skillet and cook for about 1 minute. Add the shallots and sliced mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms brown, about 5 minutes. Pour the Marsala wine into the skillet stirring everything together. Add the butter and carefully set the steaks back into the skillet simmering for a few more minutes. Garnish with freshly chopped chives.

Notes

Serve steaks with a side of rice pilaf, risotto or mashed potatoes.
