Steps:
- Cut cube steak into individual portions and season with kosher salt and pepper. Combine breadcrumbs and flour with parmesan cheese and garlic salt. Dip each piece of cube steak into the italian dressing and then coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Set aside.
- Heat 2 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium high heat and cook sliced garlic in the oil until very lightly browned, remove just the garlic from pan and set aside. Brown the steaks in batches until golden brown on each side, adding more oil as needed and remove from the heat-steaks do not need to be cooked all the way through. Arrange the steaks in the skillet and pour spaghetti sauce over the top and finish with shredded mozzarella cheese.
- Bake uncovered at 400 degrees for 30-35 minutes or until bubbly and the steaks are cooked through, time will vary depending on thickness of the steaks.
- While steaks are in the oven, cook pasta according to package directions and drain, saving 1 C of the starchy cooking water. Add reserved garlic, butter and parmesan cheese to hot pasta, adding the cooking water as needed to loosen it up. Serve steaks and sauce alongside the pasta.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Cut cube steak into serving size pieces. Coat meat with the bread crumbs and parmesan cheese. Heat olive oil in a large frying pan, and saute 1 teaspoon of the garlic for 3 minutes. Quick fry (brown quickly on both sides) meat. Place meat in a casserole baking dish, slightly overlapping edges. Place onion rings and peppers on top of meat, and pour pasta sauce over all.
- Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 30 to 45 minutes, depending on the thickness of the meat. Sprinkle mozzarella over meat and leave in the oven till bubbly.
- Boil pasta al dente. Drain, and toss in butter and 1 teaspoon garlic. For a stronger garlic taste, season with garlic powder. Top with grated parmesan and parsley for color. Serve meat and sauce atop a mound of pasta! HINT: make the meat ahead of time, and refrigerate over night, the acid in the tomato sauce will tenderize the meat even more. If you do this, save the mozzarella till the last minute.

Steps:
- In 3-quart saucepan, heat 3 tablespoons oil over medium heat until fragrant. Add carrots and onion. Cook 7 minutes, stirring constantly, until vegetables soften but do not brown. Add garlic and cook about 30 seconds or until fragrant.
- Crumble sausage and beef into saucepan. Cook 8 to 10 minutes, breaking up and stirring occasionally, until meat is brown. Drain fat.
- Increase heat to high. Add wine to meat mixture and stir and scrape bottom of pan as wine boils. Allow wine to evaporate, about 7 minutes or until pan bottom is dry. Add beef broth and chicken broth and return to boiling. Allow mixture to evaporate just as wine did, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes.
- Add half-and-half to nearly dry pan. Cook 10 minutes, stirring constantly, until there is only a glaze left on bottom of pan (be careful-half-and-half can scorch, so stir well).
- Add tomatoes and fennel and heat mixture to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook about 20 minutes or until flavors are blended.
- Meanwhile, fill large pot with 5 quarts water; heat to boiling over high heat. When water is boiling, add salt if desired. When water returns to boil, add pasta. Stir immediately to make sure it doesn't stick to itself or pan. Boil pasta 9 to 10 minutes or until cooked through but still slightly firm. Drain in colander. There is no need to shake off excess moisture.
- In 12-inch skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat until hot. Add pasta (be careful-leftover water can make oil spatter). Cook 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until edges of pasta turn slightly brown. Divide pasta evenly among 6 warmed pasta bowls. Sprinkle each with 2 tablespoons cheese. Top each with about 1 cup sauce.

Tips:
- Choose the right pasta: Short, sturdy pastas like penne or rotini are ideal for this dish, as they can hold onto the sauce well.
- Don't overcook the pasta: Cook the pasta according to the package directions, but be sure to check it a minute or two before the recommended time to ensure it is al dente (still slightly firm to the bite).
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Look for fresh, flavorful beef, a robust tomato sauce, and a good quality Parmesan cheese.
- Don't skimp on the Parmesan cheese: Parmesan cheese is one of the key ingredients in this dish, so don't be afraid to use plenty of it. Both freshly grated and pre-shredded Parmesan can be used.
- Serve immediately: This dish is best served immediately, while the pasta is still hot and the cheese is melted and gooey.
