Preparation

Step 1

Preparation:

Put the cube steak, flour, salt, and pepper into a large, resealable plastic bag. Shake the bag until all steaks are coated.

Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the cube steaks in the skillet, cooking for 3–5 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Remove the steaks and place in a slow cooker.

Add the onion and carrot to the skillet and cook for 1–2 minutes, until slightly softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Add the cooked vegetables, thyme, bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, French onion soup, stewed tomatoes, and tomato sauce to the slow cooker and gently stir.

Slow-cook on high for 4–6 hours or on low for 6–8 hours, until meat is fork tender. Serve over the mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
