- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) garlic powder (5 grams)
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) onion powder (5 grams)
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) smoked paprika (5 grams)
- 1 teaspoon (5 ml) salt (5 grams)
- 1/2 teaspoon (3 ml) black pepper (2 grams)
- 1 cup (240 ml) all-purpose flour (120 grams)
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1 cup (240 ml) breadcrumbs (120 grams)
- 1/4 cup (60 ml) vegetable oil, for frying (60 milliliters)
Instructions
- Mix the garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper in a bowl.
- Season the venison cubes with the spice mixture, ensuring even coverage.
- Make a small incision in each venison cube and stuff with a piece of mozzarella cheese.
- Place the flour in a shallow dish.
- Beat the eggs in a separate shallow dish.
- Place the breadcrumbs in another shallow dish.
- Dredge each venison cube in flour, shaking off excess.
- Dip the floured venison cubes into the beaten eggs.
- Coat the venison cubes in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to adhere.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
- Add the venison cubes to the skillet, avoiding overcrowding.
- Fry until golden brown on all sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- Remove the venison bites from the skillet and drain on paper towels.
- Let rest for a minute before serving to allow cheese to settle.
Notes
- Marinate beef cubes in spice mixture for at least 30 minutes for a bolder flavor before stuffing with cheese.
- Ensure cheese is securely sealed inside each beef cube to prevent melting during frying.
- Use a thermometer to confirm oil temperature of 350°F (175°C) for crispy beef and cheese bites.
