This super Easy Cubed Steak Dinner is definitely one to add to your bank of midweek meal recipes! I had never heard of cube steak before I moved to the United States where I found out that it is a cut of top round or top sirloin beef which is made mouth-wateringly tender by pounding it with a meat tenderizer. It gets its weird name from the indentations left by the tenderizer!
Start by cooking the steaks in clarified butter. While the steaks keep warm in the oven, make a mushroom and onion gravy by frying the mushrooms and onions in the pan until soft. Then add beef stock before thickening with cornstarch. I serve these steaks with seasonal vegetables or mashed potatoes (or both!).
To make Easy Cubed Steak Dinner, you will need the following ingredients:
Heat a large heavy based frying pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
Add a tablespoon of clarified butter to the frying pan and heat until it starts to bubble but not smoke.
Season the steaks on both sides with salt and pepper.
Add the steaks to the pan. Sear them for 3 minutes on each side.
Transfer the cooked steaks to a baking sheet. Place them in the oven to keep warm.
In the same pan, cook the mushrooms and onions for about 10 minutes until soft.
Pour the beef stock into the pan with the mushrooms and onions. Stir well and scrape any bits stuck to the pan with a wooden spoon.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water together. Add the mixture to the pan and stir well. Turn the heat down and leave the gravy to simmer for a few minutes until thickened.
Serve the steaks with the mushroom and onion gravy and mashed potatoes or seasonal vegetables on the side.
