| 1 | pt | Basic Liquid Game Marinade (see recipe) |
| 4 | To 5-pound boneless loin of venison, well trimmed | |
| 3 | lg | Garlic cloves |
| 1/3 | c | Chopped green onions |
| 1/3 | c | Dry white wine |
| 1 | ts | Chopped fresh sage |
| 1 | ts | Fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried) |
| 1 | c | Dijon mustard |
| 1/4 | c | Olive oil |

Pour marinade over venison in a glass or stainless-steel pan. Cover and refrigerate 1 to 2 hours, turning occasionally.
Remove venison from marinade and pat dry. Discard marinade. Quickly sear the meat in a hot saute pan of on a grill for 3 to 4 minutes. If necessary, cut loin in half and sear in 2 batches.
Place remaining ingredients in a food processor or blender, and quickly process until smooth. Mixture should be very thick. Cover and refrigerate.
Place venison in a roasting pan and coat well with the mustard mixture. Roast in a preheated 375 degree F. oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until meat is medium rare (130 degrees F. internal temperature).
Let meat rest at least 5 minutes before carving.
