Ingredients

• 1 pound venison, cut into finger-sized strips
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup milk
• 2 cups bread crumbs
• Vegetable oil, for frying
• 1/2 cup mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce

Directions

1. In a shallow bowl, combine flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
2. In another bowl, whisk together eggs and milk.
3. Dip each venison strip into the flour mixture, then into the egg mixture, and finally coat with bread crumbs. Press the bread crumbs onto the venison to ensure a good coating.
4. Place the breaded venison fingers on a baking sheet and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to help the coating set.
5. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be about 1 inch deep.
6. Carefully place the venison fingers into the hot oil and fry until golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking, for about 4-5 minutes.
7. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked venison fingers to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
8. In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, honey, lemon juice, and hot sauce to make the dipping sauce.
9. Serve the crispy venison fingers with the tangy dipping sauce on the side.
10. Enjoy!
