Ingredients

Scale
  1. 4 (6-ounce) cube steaks

  2. 1 teaspoon salt

  3. ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  4. ½ teaspoon onion powder

  5. ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  6. 1 small yellow onion, sliced

  7. 6 ounces button mushrooms, sliced

  8. 1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of mushroom soup

  9. 1 (10.5-ounce) can French onion soup

  10. 1 cup beef broth

  11. 3 tablespoons tomato paste

  12. 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  13. 2 tablespoons cold water

  14. 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley, for garnish


Instructions

  • Prepare the Steaks:

    • Pat the cube steaks dry with paper towels.

    • Season with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.

  • Layer in the Slow Cooker:

    • Place 2 cube steaks at the bottom of the crock pot.

    • Top with half of the onions and mushrooms.

    • Add the remaining steaks on top, then layer with the rest of the onions and mushrooms.

  • Make the Gravy:

    • In a bowl, whisk together the cream of mushroom soup, French onion soup, beef broth, and tomato paste.

    • Pour the mixture over the steaks and vegetables.

  • Slow Cook:

    • Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours (or HIGH for 4-5 hours) until the steaks are fork-tender.

  • Thicken the Gravy:

    • In the last hour of cooking, whisk together cornstarch and cold water to make a slurry.

    • Stir the slurry into the slow cooker, cover, and continue cooking until the gravy thickens.

 

  • Serve & Enjoy:

    • Plate the cube steaks, generously spoon the mushroom-onion gravy on top, and garnish with fresh parsley.

    • Serve with mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles for a complete meal!


Notes

  • If you prefer a thicker gravy, you can add a little more cornstarch slurry.

  • This dish is great served with a side of green beans or roasted vegetables.

 

  • Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
