My family liked this recipe really well, though, I did make a couple of changes. I cooked 6 pieces, added a can of beefy mushroom along with the french onion soup. I also dredged the meat in seasoned flour before browning. I put foil on the pan for the first 45 minutes of bake time. Next time I will pound the meat out a bit thinner to aid in the tenderness and cut back just a bit on the cook time. Very yummie recipe! The gravy is awesome.

My boyfriend found your recipe a few weeks ago and surprised me with dinner when I got home. It was WONDERFUL!! I love how the onion soup and steak juice makes its' own gravy as it cooks in the oven. He made it with garlic mashed potatoes and the gravy was great to pour over them. Tonight I am making the steaks, but am going to put mushrooms over top along with the onion soup. I'm sure it will taste great! Thanks for an awesome recipe!

GREAT RECIPE! I dredged in flour and salt and peppered the steaks. I browned in a pan. I used the Lipton dry packaged beefy onion soup mix and 1 cup of water. I also covered with foil. I still cooked this for about an hour. The steaks were very tender and you have a great gravy for your mashed potatoes too!

Love this recipe - very easy and very good. I usually make 6-8 steaks due to family size so I use 2 cans of soup and an extra can of water. I also sprinkle a package of onion soup mix on top. My husband actually went to the store and bought the steaks and brought them home for me to cook this way - that's how much he liked them.

I love this recipe and have made some changes...am having it at least once a week...just like Mom's country style steak but it's always tender and less hassle. I coated the steak with flour, browned and threw them in the crockpot. Couldn't find condensed french onion soup so I used 2 cans cream of mushroom soup (with lower sodium & fat), 1/2 pkg onion soup mix and about 1/2 - 3/4 cup water. Cooked on low about 6 hours or on high 4 hours. LOVE IT!!!

Excellent way to enjoy cube steaks that are not all dried out. Like others, I used Onion soup mix with a cup of water and added sauteed mushrooms on top, Covered with foil for half the cooking time.

Pretty good for cube steak. I floured and browned and used the onion/mushroom soup mix. Definitely easy. Kids didn't like it though.

It was a little salty for me, but it has great flavor. Everyone in the family enjoyed this. I especially loved the fact that there were only two ingredients; both super easy to find in any grocery store. Next time, I will add a little water to cut down on the saltiness somewhat (maybe about 1/2 can worth), add some mushrooms, and cover with foil during the baking time as some others have suggested. Great recipe.

Great recipe! I've made this twice now, there is never any left over. I did however make one adjustment, I covered the pan with foil. It made the meat more tender. Thanks for sharing the recipe.

These steaks were very tasty. Having to brown them coated with flour took more time that I'd have liked and it stuck to the pan terribly (even with a small amount of oil to start off with). So my clean up time was increased.

This is a delicious recipe and a nice change from country fried steak, which is all I ever knew to fix with cube steaks. BTW, I used deer meat. This method of cooking made them taste just like beef. I did make a few changes--I seasoned my steaks with salt and pepper then dredged them in flour before lightly browning them in some EVOO in an iron skillet. Then I used a packet of dry "beefy onion" soup mix and a cup of water instead of the canned soup. I also covered the pan with foil while the steaks baked in the oven. My husband and I both love this recipe!

Yummy! This was so easy. I did make some adjustments. I used cream of mushroom soup instead of french onion. I put some worchester sauce on the steaks before browning them in some olive oil. After browning the steaks I sauted sliced mushrooms and onion in the same skillet with olive oil. I put the mushrooms and onion on top of the steaks and added the mushroom soup and a can full of water. When done a added some flour to the sauce and it thickened up. Next time I will make it with mashed potatoes because I had a lot of yummy gravy left over.

I do this once a week except I flour and brown. Then I use onion/mushroom soup mix with 1 cup of water. Sometimes I throw in whole fresh mushrooms....mmmm good!
