Cube Steak in Gravy

Cube steak is a cut of meat that brings back so many fond memories. One of my most comfort filled meals is Chicken fried steak, mashed potatoes and grave, and corn. Mom's version. The Chicken fried steak is made with cube steak.

Trying to be lower carb, that meal isn't one I can eat...ever. So I wanted to find one that was close. This one has the elements of cube steak and a gravy. I'd make this again and again.

Serves 5

1 1/2 pounds cubed steak (5 cube steaks)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
4 tbsp butter, divided
8 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
6 cloves garlic, diced finely
1 large onion, sliced
1 (14-ounce) can beef broth

Season steak generously with salt and pepper. Heat butter in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat.

Add cube steaks and cook on medium high until well browned on each side, about 4 minutes per side. Remove steaks from pan when browned and set aside.

Add second half butter to pan and melt. Add onions and mushrooms and sauté on medium, stirring often, until onions are soft and mushrooms have browned slightly.

Add garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, another 2 minutes. Stir in beef stock, stirring to deglaze pan as you add stock.

Bring to a boil and let reduce, about 4 minutes. When gravy has thickened, add steaks back to pan. Toss in gravy to coat.
