SARASOTA'S TENDER GARLIC CUBE STEAKS



Sarasota's Tender Garlic Cube Steaks image

Classic remake. These are tender, savory and very easy to make. Serve the classics with this, mashed or baked spuds, carrots or baby peas, but I love to serve grilled portabello mushrooms as well. Cube steaks at times get a "bad rap," because they are cooked quick and then they are tough. Well they are not meant to be cooked quick, they need a little simmer time to get that fork tender savory flavor. Also, I can't say that these are low fat, but they are definitely a lighter version. There is NO soup or no packaged sauces in this recipe.

Time 50m

Yield 4 1/4 lb steaks, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 cube steaks, approximately 1 lb
2 large onions, cut in half and thin sliced
1 cup saltine crackers, crushed fine (1 cup after being crushed)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 1/4 cups beef broth (I like low salt)
2 extra large eggs, you will need about 1/2 cup (2-3 eggs, beaten well)
2 1/4 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 pinch red pepper flakes
2 tablespoons olive oil, you may need a bit more (to saute the beef)
salt
pepper

Steps:

  • Crackers -- The first step is to crush the saltines. About 20-25 crackers will give you about 1 cup, but crush them fine. A fine crushed cracker will stay on the beef better than those not crushed well. I just use a baggie (ziploc) and my meat mallet or rolling pin. Use anything you have.
  • Steak -- Bring the steak to room temp and season well with salt and pepper and make sure to rub in the seasoning.
  • Breading Station -- Dip #1 - Wet -- In a small bowl or pie plate, beat the eggs well. Dip #2 - Dry -- In a small bowl or pie plate again, add the cracker crumbs, thyme, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
  • Dip each cube steak into the egg mixture, then into the cracker crumbs coating well. Make sure to press the crackers crumbs into the steaks.
  • Pan Fry -- In a large saute pan, heat up the olive oil to medium high heat and add the steaks. Make sure you use a large enough pan so they are not crowded. Brown well on the first side until golden brown. Then flip, you may need to add a bit more oil if the pan is too dry - not much, just a touch. Add in the sliced onion and garlic and brown the second side until golden brown as well. Then reduce the heat to low. Add 1/4 cup of the beef broth and cover. Cook 30-40 minutes until tender. Stir once or twice during cooking.
  • Sauce -- Once the steaks are done, remove and cover with foil. Make sure to leave the onions in the pan. Mix the cornstarch with the remaining beef broth and pour into the pan along with the garlic and onions. Bring to a boil until thickened and then reduce the heat and just simmer 2-3 minutes. Add in the parsley and taste for any additional seasoning, salt and pepper.
  • Serve -- Pour the onion gravy over the individual steaks. ENJOY! Serve this with some mashed potatoes or parsnips, peas, carrots and I love a couple of grilled portabellos. Just a great classic dish.

ROSEMARY & GARLIC COATED PORK CUBE STEAKS



Rosemary & Garlic Coated Pork Cube Steaks image

Rosemary and garlic just seem to go with pork, just as coating and pan frying seem to go with cube steaks. So it only seemed natural they should all come together in one dish.

GARLIC, ONION AND LEEK CUBE STEAKS



Garlic, Onion and Leek Cube Steaks image

A classic favorite. Cube steaks are inexpensive cuts, easy to make and this recipe really just gives it great flavor. A few fresh vegetables and herbs can make all the difference in a dish. Serve this with a classic baked potato and baby peas or green beans. I can still remember my mom serving this, however, I am her mushroom gravy was store bought and the peas canned back then. During winter months we didn't have the garden so that it what was available back in the days. So this is my version of a classic

Time 1h

Yield 4 Steaks, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

4 beef cube steaks (1 1/2 lbs)
2 large onions (cut in half and thin sliced)
2 leeks (white and some green thin sliced)
1 teaspoon garlic, minced

salt
pepper
1 tablespoon olive to saute beef and vegetables
2 cups beef broth
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1/2 cup water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Breading -- First I take my saltines in a large baggie and close and then pound with my mallet, rolling pin, heavy pan, roll with your rolling pin. Anything you want to crunch them up. You can use your food processor too, but then you need to clean it. The baggie is the easy method.
  • Pour the crumbs into a small pie pan or small bowl and add the paprika, thyme, salt and pepper and mix well.
  • Steak -- In a small bowl or dish, add the eggs and worcestershire sauce, mix and then dredge each piece of meat into the egg mixture and then into the saltine crackers. and set on a plate to the side as you heat up the pan.
  • Saute -- Heat a large non stick pan to medium high heat and add the oil and then saute until brown on each side. Just a couple of minutes. Then add in the onions, leeks, fresh and roasted garlic and the tomato paste mixed with the cup of water. Cover and reduce to low and cook 40 minutes until the beef is tender. Once the beef is tender remove the beef to a plate and cover. Keep remaining tomato sauce, onions and leeks in the pan.
  • Sauce -- In the same pan mix the corn starch and broth and stir well. Add it to the sauce and bring to a boil to make a nice sauce. Add in the parsley and cook another 3-4 minute on medium high to slightly reduce. Season with salt and pepper if necessary and add the steak back in to heat up.
  • Serve -- Each plate gets a steak and top with any additional gravy if desired and then a spoon of the onions and leeks. This is wonderful served over buttered noodles. ENJOY!
