Description

A comforting dish featuring succulent cubed steak smothered in caramelized onions and earthy mushrooms, perfect for family gatherings.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb cubed steak
  • 2 large onions, sliced
  • 8 oz mushrooms (button, cremini, or shiitake), sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Fresh herbs (thyme or parsley), optional

Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients: Slice your onions and mushrooms, and cube your steak into hearty portions.
  2. Sear the Steak: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the steak with salt and pepper, then sear each piece for about 3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  3. Sauté the Onions and Mushrooms: In the same skillet, add more oil if needed and toss in onions and mushrooms. Cook until onions are translucent and mushrooms are golden, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Add Garlic and Broth: Stir in minced garlic for a minute before adding the broth. Scrape browned bits from the skillet.
  5. Return the Steak to the Skillet: Place steak back in the pan, let simmer together for 15-20 minutes, adding cream in the last few minutes.
  6. Final Touch: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed with salt, pepper, and herbs.

Notes

Serve with mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the sauce. Great for adaptations with seasonal vegetables.
