Easy Cube Steak Recipe
Description
The cubed steak is dredged in a mixture of flour, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and black pepper before being pan-fried in vegetable oil. Cooking each side for about five minutes develops a browned crust while sealing in juices. After removing the steak, sliced onions are cooked in the same pan alongside beef broth and ranch seasoning mix. This combination deglazes the pan and creates a rich gravy that absorbs the flavors left from searing. The steak is returned briefly to warm through before serving, making a comforting dish with a tender texture and flavorful sauce.
Serving the cube steak with mashed potatoes complements the gravy and beef, adding creaminess to the dish.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds steak cubed

Instructions
