Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Cube steak
- 0.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 1 large Yellow onion, sliced
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoons Onion powder
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
Instructions
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, and black pepper. Dredge each cube steak in the flour mixture, ensuring an even coat. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear each cube steak for about 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Do not cook through; this step is just to develop flavor.
Transfer the seared cube steaks to the slow cooker in an even layer.
Add the sliced onion on top of the cube steaks in the slow cooker.
In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and onion powder. Pour this mixture over the cube steaks and onions in the slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the cube steaks are tender and infused with the savory gravy flavor.
About 30 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir this slurry into the gravy in the slow cooker to thicken it.
Cover the slow cooker again and let the gravy thicken during the remaining cooking time.
Once the gravy is thickened, serve the tender cube steaks and rich gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and enjoy!
