Categories     Meat

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb cube steaks or 1 lb tenderized steak
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons margarine
2 cups beef broth

Steps:

  • Mix flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder in small bowl.
  • Coat meat in flour and fry in skillet for 5-10 mins til browned on both sides; remove to plate.
  • Add 2 T butter to skillet and melt.
  • Stir in 2-3 T of remaining flour mixture.
  • Whisk in beef broth (may need to add water to thin if gravy is too thick).
  • Return meat to skillet, reduce heat to low, cover and cook 30 minutes.
  • Serve with rice, mashed potatoes, or noodles.
  • Note: I've also made this in a slow cooker. Fixed it in the morning (didn't pan-fry) and let it cook all day. Can't begin to describe how good the kitchen smells when I get home!

Tips:

  • To tenderize cube steak, use a meat mallet or the side of a heavy knife to pound it until it is about 1/4 inch thick. This will help the steak cook evenly and prevent it from becoming tough.
  • Season the steak generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Brown the steak in a hot skillet over medium-high heat. This will create a nice crust on the outside of the steak while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the steak for an additional 5-7 minutes per side, or until it reaches your desired doneness.
  • For the gravy, whisk together the flour and water until smooth. Gradually add the mixture to the skillet with the steak, stirring constantly. Bring the gravy to a simmer and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until it has thickened.
  • Serve the cube steak with the gravy and your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, green beans, or rice.

Conclusion:

Cube steak is a flavorful and affordable cut of meat that is easy to cook. With the right preparation and cooking techniques, you can make a delicious and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight dinner, give cube steak a try!
