Ingredients
Scale
- 4 cube steaks
- 1 large yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 cups beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp water (for slurry)
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp butter or oil
Instructions
- Season steaks with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear steaks 2–3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
- Add onions to the same skillet. Sauté until golden and soft, about 8–10 minutes. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.
- Pour in broth, Worcestershire, and soy sauce. Scrape up browned bits from the pan bottom.
- Mix cornstarch and water to form a slurry. Stir into skillet and cook until thickened, 2–3 minutes.
- Return steaks to pan. Cover and simmer on low for 10–15 minutes until tender. Serve with mashed potatoes or rice.
Notes
- For a creamier gravy, stir in a splash of cream at the end.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Double the broth and slurry for extra gravy.
