Understanding Cubed Steak:

While traditional steak is renowned for its tenderness, marbling, and robust flavor, cube steak—often referred to as “micro steak”—offers a different experience. These thin slices of beef have been mechanically tenderized, typically from tougher cuts. The tenderizing process creates a unique texture, with the characteristic cubic patterns on the surface. Unlike regular steak that requires high-heat cooking methods to maintain tenderness, cubed steaks shine in longer cooking times, ideal for stews and casseroles. Their affordability and robust flavor make them an excellent choice for a budget-friendly, yet flavorful meal.

Ingredients:

  • 4 steak cubes
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) French Onion Soup
  • 1 can (10.75 ounces) cream of chicken soup
