I used elk steaks for this recipe and it was fantastic! The spiciness give it a great kick and made it especialy good with game meat.

frying the steaks in oil on high heat was a big mistake, they burned quickly. Maybe it should be heated up, but then turn down to low before putting the steak in. I had a real mess.
