Rachael turns an inexpensive cut of meat into a delicious dinner. The whole family loves this! I serve it with salad and some orzo tossed with parmesan cheese, a little butter, and fresh-ground pepper.

Time 25m

Yield 4-610 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 tablespoons evoo extra virgin olive oil
4 beef cube steaks (about 2 pounds total)
salt & fresh ground pepper
1 slice pancetta (optional) or 1 slice bacon, chopped (optional)
1/2 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 (8 ounce) can tomato sauce

Steps:

  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat with 2 turns of the pan of EVOO, about 2 tablespoons. Season the steaks with salt and pepper, and sear in the pan (working in batches if need be) until the steaks have a nice crust on the outside, about 3 minutes per side.
  • Remove the cooked steaks from the skillet and reserve warm on a plate. Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the pancetta or bacon, if using. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the onion and garlic to the pan, and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add the balsamic vinegar, brown sugar, Worcestershire and tomato sauce to the pan, season with salt and pepper, and bring up to a bubble. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer the sauce until lightly thickened, 3-4 minutes.
  • Serve the steaks with a hearty pour of the Italian BBQ sauce and a fresh green salad alongside.
