Ingredients

Scale

SWEET POTATOES

  • 2 medium sweet potatoes (about 1 pound), diced
  • 1 – 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • salt + pepper, to taste

HOT HONEY

  • 3 tablespoons honey
  • 1/2 – 1 teaspoon chili flakes
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar (optional)

You can also simply purchase hot honey at the store.

VENISON

BOWL

  • 2 – 3 cups arugula
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • optional : goat cheese or feta
  • optional : pickled red onions
  •  

Instructions

  1. Roast the Sweet Potatoes. Preheat the oven to 425℉. Toss the diced sweet potatoes with olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until evenly coated. Spread in a single layer on a sheet pan. Roast for 25 – 30 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and tender when pierced with a fork.
  2. Make the Hot Honey. In a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, gently warm the honey with chili flakes and apple cider vinegar. Let it sit for a few minutes to infuse. The flavor deepens as it rests.
  3. Cook the Venison. Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add the ground venison and minced garlic, breaking it apart as it cooks. Season with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook for 6 – 8 minutes, just until browned. Finish with a light drizzle of hot honey directly in the pan to coat.
  4. Build the Bowls. Layer each bowl with arugula, roasted sweet potatoes, ground venison, and avocado slices. Finish with a generous drizzle of hot honey and any optional toppings like cheese or pickled onions.
