Cube Steak gets coated in flour and then browned in a pan. It's slow-cooked with tomatoes, green peppers, onions, and seasonings until tender. Serve it over rice or mashed potatoes for a filling meal that won't break the bank.

Ingredients
2tablespoonsbutter
1large onioncut in half and sliced into 1/2 moon shapes
Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a cast iron Dutch oven. Add onion and green pepper and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove onion and green pepper to a bowl and set aside.
Season both sides of cube steak with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. You want a thick coating of flour because it will help thicken the sauce.
Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to Dutch oven. Working in 2 batches, cook cube steak until browned on both sides (it will not be cooked through).
Leave the second batch of cube steak in the Dutch oven and return the first batch plus the onion and green peppers to the Dutch oven.
Add remaining ingredients and stir to mix. Cover Dutch oven (I leave a little gap) and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing on the bottom burns.
