What You’ll Need Cube Steaks & Gravy
Cube Steaks: Cube steaks are a lean cut of beef that comes from the top or bottom round and are also known as ‘cubed,’ ‘Swiss,’ or ‘minute steaks’. They’re a tough cut of meat that is usually pre-tenderized so cooking them is super easy! If you can’t find cube steaks, use round steaks and tenderize them with a meat tenderizer or mallet. Onions: Use yellow or white onions to add lots of flavor to the gravy. The onions should be softened without browning. Gravy: Rich and full-bodied this gravy has a bit of balsamic for a boost of flavor. Use extra broth if you prefer to omit the wine and feel free to add Italian seasonings if desired.
Variations
Bulk up the gravy with some bacon crumbles, sauteed garlic mushrooms, broccolini or toss in a bag of frozen vegetable medley if desired.
