Smothered Cube Steak with Rice & Sauteed Squash & Zucchini


web posted December 15, 2008
Ingredients:
Pack of Beef or Deer Cube Steak
Onion
White Rice
2 – 3 Small Fresh Squash
2 Small Zucchini
rolls

Wet Ingredients: Worcestershire, Italian Dressing, Oil, Hot Sauce

Dry Ingredients: Garlic Powder, Oregano, Salt, Pepper, Tony Chaterre's Creole Seasoning, Flour.

For this I like to use either a stainless steel skillet or a cast iron skillet.

Take your pan and fill it ¼ of the way with oil.   You will know that you have your oil hot enough when you add a little flour to it and it disappears.  Cover the cube steak with hot sauce on both sides of the meat.  Then season the meat with your Dry Ingredients on both sides.  Get a zip lock bag and add the flour to it.  Make sure to season your flour also.  When your grease is right add the meat. 

You are not trying to deep fry the meat.  Flip the meat over a let fry.  Some of your seasoning is going to stick to the bottom of the pan and that is a GOOD THING!!!  This is what you are going to make your roux or gravy with.  After you have flipped the meat and cook the other side take the meat out of the grease and sit on a paper towel and let the access grease drain.  Pour the grease out of the pan.  Leave the seasoning on the bottom.  Put pan back on the stove and let it get hot.  Add some water to the pan and take your whisk and get all of those GREAT seasonings off the bottom of the pan.  Add flour in gradually whisking it in. 

Also add Worcestershire and more of your dry seasonings.   Your gravy will begin to thicken up. If it gets too thick just add a little water to thin it out.  Add sliced onion.  Let simmer for a few minutes so that your onions can cook a little.  Add your meat back in.  Let this simmer checking regularly and stirring as needed.

Take the squash and zucchini and slice either long ways or in cubes.  Put a little olive oil in the pan.  Take the squash & zucchini and add to the pan.  Squirt a little Italian dressing on them along with a little garlic, salt, pepper, and oregano.  Cook for about 5 minutes or until they are done to your liking.

As for the rice.  Everybody can't cook rice.  You can either go to the Chinese rest. And get an order of white rice or Uncle Ben's make really good microwave rice. Throw your rolls in the oven and your done!
