Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1.1 pounds cubed steak
- 1 onion
- 1 can beef broth
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 5 tablespoons flour
- ½ teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 packet onion soup mix
- Pepper
Cooking Ingredients:
- 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
- Combine 5 tablespoons flour, ½ teaspoon garlic salt, and ground pepper in a mixing bowl. Thoroughly coat each cubed steak in the seasoned flour mixture.
- Heat 5 tablespoons vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat at 350°F. Sear each floured steak for 5 minutes per side until golden brown.
- Add 1 chopped onion to the skillet. Sprinkle 1 packet of onion soup mix over the steaks and stir carefully to prevent burning.
- Pour 1 can of beef broth into the skillet. Simmer the mixture for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to create a smooth, consistent gravy.
- Reduce heat to low and let the steaks cook for an additional 5 minutes, ensuring the onions become soft and caramelized.
- Remove the steaks from heat when the gravy thickens and the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145°F.
- Plate your steaks and drizzle the rich onion gravy generously over the top. Serve immediately alongside your favorite side dishes.
Notes
- Use a cast-iron skillet for better browning and more robust flavor on the steaks.
- Tenderize the cubed steak before coating to ensure a more delicate texture and easier chewing.
- For a gluten-free version, replace wheat flour with cornstarch or almond flour when coating the steaks.
- When cooking the onions, caramelize them slowly to develop a deeper, sweeter flavor that enhances the entire dish.
