At Taste of Southern, I often refer to many dishes as “my favorite” as they hold sentimental value and are reminiscent of the meals my mother would prepare when I was growing up. In this blog, I will share with you a country style steak recipe that is exceptionally delicious. These recipes are what I consider to be comfort foods, capable of not only pleasing the palate but also bringing back cherished memories.
Country Style Steak is a dish that holds a special place in my heart. It is a quintessential comfort food that warms the soul, and one that my mother would frequently prepare for our family. She would pair it with her homemade mashed potatoes, and I often found myself going back for seconds.
Cubed Steak, the primary ingredient of Country Style Steak, is readily available at most grocery stores. Often packaged in large family sizes, this meat has already undergone a tenderizing process, rendering it suitable for cooking.
How To Make Country Style Steak
While the recipe typically yields large portions, I have discovered a smaller package that is ideal for a single serving or two. Additionally, leftovers may be frozen and reheated for later consumption. Country Style Steak is a staple on the menus of diners and family-owned restaurants throughout the southern United States. Its popularity is a testament to its delicious flavor and universal appeal. I encourage you to try this dish and see for yourself. Without further ado, let’s head into the kitchen and get cooking!
Ingredients To Make Country Style Steak
- Cubed Steak 1 pound
- Flour, All-Purpose or Self-Rising 1 cup
- Beef Granule Beef Broth 2 teaspoons
- 1 (small) Onion
- Pepper and Salt to taste
Step By Step Instructions To Make Country Style Steak
Step1
Begin by leaving the cubed steak on its packing tray and seasoning it with salt and black pepper. Next, prepare a small tray or bowl with one cup of flour, and dredge each steak in the flour, pressing the flour into the meat to ensure both sides are evenly coated. Allow the steaks to rest for 15 minutes to dry and reach room temperature.
Step2
Heat a skillet over medium heat on the stove top and add a thin layer of cooking oil to the skillet. Carefully add the coated steaks to the skillet, letting them brown for 3 minutes on each side. Once browned, remove the steaks from the skillet and set them aside.
Step3
Remove all but approximately 3 tablespoons of oil from the skillet, leaving the browned bits. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons of flour over the oil, stirring quickly. Let the flour and oil cook for one minute, stirring constantly. Gradually add the broth to the skillet, stirring constantly to remove any lumps, and then add the sliced onions. Return the steak pieces to the skillet, cover it, and let it simmer on medium-low heat for 20 minutes.
Step4
After 20 minutes, the onions should be translucent, and the meat should be tender and fully cooked. Serve the dish warm and enjoy the delicious flavor of this classic Southern recipe.
