Ingredients

  • 1 pound cube steaks (about 4 steaks)
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ cup sliced onion (about half a medium onion)
  • 6 ounces sliced mushrooms
  • 1 ⅔ cup beef broth
  • 1 ½ tablespoons onion soup mix (about half an envelope, or 6 teaspoons)

Method

  1. Pound the steaks under plastic wrap with a meat mallet to an even 1/4-1/2 inch thickness.
  2. Mix the flour, black pepper, salt, onion powder and garlic powder in a small bowl and dredge the steaks until fully coated, shaking off the excess.
  3. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and cook the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side, then rest on a plate.
  4. Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and the sliced onion to the skillet and cook over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, add the mushrooms and cook for 5-6 minutes until tender and golden brown.
  5. Stir in the beef broth and onion soup mix.
  6. Stir the cornstarch and water into a slurry, add to the gravy, return the steaks, cover and simmer for 5-10 minutes until the gravy thickens and serve at once.
