Ingredients

• 4 pieces cube steak
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 large (sliced) yellow onion
• 2 cups beef broth
• 0.25 cup heavy cream
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons (chopped, for garnish) fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

In a shallow bowl, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.

Step 2

Dredge each piece of cube steak in the seasoned flour, ensuring an even coating on all sides. Shake off any excess flour and set aside.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil and butter.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and the skillet is hot, add the cube steaks in a single layer. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, add the sliced onions. Cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and caramelized.

Step 6

Pour the beef broth into the skillet, scraping the bottom of the pan to deglaze and release any browned bits.

Step 7

Stir in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Step 8

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Slowly add the slurry to the skillet, stirring constantly, until the gravy thickens.

Step 9

Return the cube steaks to the skillet and spoon some of the gravy over them. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the steaks are tender.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your Country Style Cube Steak with mashed potatoes and your favorite vegetables!
