1.5 lbs cube steak

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 can (10.75 oz) cream of mushroom soup
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup dry white wine
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon onion powder

  • Preparation:

    1. Prep the Steak: Season the cube steak generously with salt and pepper. Dredge the steak in flour, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
    2. Sear the Steak: Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak until browned on both sides. Remove from the pan and set aside.
    3. Create the Gravy: In the same skillet, add the beef broth, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, white wine, parsley, thyme, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 10-15 minutes.
    4. Combine and Serve: Return the seared steak to the gravy and simmer for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the steak is cooked to your desired level of doneness. Serve immediately over mashed potatoes, egg noodles, or rice.

    Total Time: 45-60 minutes

  • A Fusion of Flavors

    This dish is a testament to the power of culinary fusion. It draws inspiration from the hearty comfort food traditions of the American Midwest, combining them with the refined techniques of French cuisine. The result is a dish that is both satisfying and sophisticated.

    The rich, creamy mushroom gravy is a nod to classic French sauces, while the hearty cube steak is a quintessential American comfort food. By blending these two culinary traditions, we’ve created a dish that is both familiar and exciting.
