Spicy Sweet Cubed Steak And Onions Recipes

CUBED STEAK WITH ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• Combine flour, garlic salt, and black pepper in a pie plate or shallow dish. Dredge both sides of cubed steak in flour mixture.
• Heat oil in a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over medium-high heat. Add steak (cooking in 2 batches if necessary). Cook 5 minutes per side. Remove steak from skillet and set aside.
• If you want to thicken the gravy some, add a few teaspoons of leftover flour from dredging the steak to the drippings in the pan.
• Add onion, broth, and onion soup mix to the drippings in the pan. Use a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits stuck to the bottom of the pan.
• Bring to a simmer and cook until onions are soft.
• Return steak to pan to warm. Serve with mashed potatoes.

COUNTRY FRIED STEAKS WITH SWEET ONION GRAVY

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, stir together the flour, cornstarch, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper until thoroughly mixed. Remove 1/3 cup of the flour mixture, and set aside. Gently press the cube steaks into the remaining flour mixture in the bowl until well coated on both sides.
• Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until the foam subsides on the butter. Gently pan-fry the steaks until the coating is browned, about 4 minutes per side. Turn only once. Remove the steaks to a platter.
• Spread the onions out into the skillet with the remaining oil and butter, and cook over medium heat until the onions are translucent, 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often. Sprinkle the reserved flour mixture over the onions; cook and stir for 1 more minute, then pour in the beef stock and milk. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly until the gravy is thickened. Scrape the pan well to dissolve any flavor bits left in the bottom. Return the browned steaks to the gravy mixture, then push them down into the gravy. Cover the skillet, reduce heat to low, and simmer until the steaks are very tender, about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.

SPICE-RUBBED STRIP STEAKS WITH SWEET-AND-SPICY ONION SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft and slightly golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Add the garlic, tomato paste and pepper flakes, and cook for 2 minutes. Stir in the beef broth, hot sauce and Worcestershire. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Keep warm.

CHEESY, SPICY, CUBED SIRLOIN TIP STEAK

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, fill enough water to reach about a third of the way to the top. Place it on the burner on high to heat it up faster, place the steak in the pan, cover it. Turn the heat down once the steam starts to emit too much, to medium, and leave a little crack in the cover if you have to. Cook each side for 15 minutes.
• In a small serving bowl, combine chipotle mustard and wasabi sauce together with a fork.
• Mince the jalapeno pepper, place in the sauces mixed together, and combine just a little bit more.
• Cube the steak into tiny chunks. Toss them with the sauce, and they should be fully coated. Scoop them off to one side of the bowl, place down a pepperjack cheese slice, slide them back on it (in the center), and then place another cheese slice down on top.
• Cook in the microwave for about 3 minutes, maybe four. (If you oppose microwaves, you could do what I didn't try, and put it in to bake instead. You'd have to figure out the appropriate time and temperature, though - but that shouldn't be too hard.).
• Yay! Spicy, saucy steak! With yummy jalapeno chunks that pop in your mouth! Eat it.
