    • 1). Preheat the oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

    • 2). Season the entire cut of meat with salt and pepper.

    • 3). Measure 2 tbsp. of olive oil into an oven-safe skillet. Heat the olive oil on the stove top over high heat.

    • 4). Place the venison in the hot oil and sear each side of the meat for one to two minutes.

    • 5). Take the skillet off the burner and place it in the preheated oven.

    • 6). Bake the meat for about 20 minutes. At 125 degrees Fahrenheit, the meat will be cooked medium-rare. If you would like the meat to be cooked more, bake it for longer. Do not overcook the meat, however, as it will toughen.

    • 7). Allow the meat to sit for about 10 minutes after coming out of the oven. Slice the meat into strips or as desired.
