Woo Hoo!! I made this at my brother's request. This is a new family favorite. The steak had a great crispy crust. But the gravy was the star of this show. A great spicy, creamy taste. We couldn't stop eating this. Thanks Nurse Di. -
Wow, this is hightly recommended! We usually don't like the gravy on our steaks so I usually just don't make it, but....before I always made it like the package states, wow....what a great gravy this made. My whole family loved it, even the kids, this is a keeper in our house for Sure. Thanks!!! -
Excellent! Thank you for the great recipe.

GOOD GRACEOUS!! We loved this (especially the gravy). My DH is a nut for "cubed steak & gravy". I did adjust the amount of liquid for the gravy. I used 1 cup of milk and 1 cup of water since didn't have enough milk. I also cut down the cayenne pepper to a tad over 1/4 tsp. It was just perfect. This is another winner NurseDi! -
I learned one thing while making this dish...I am not good at pan frying in oil. Meat was wonderful and gravy was ok, but I'm not a fan of gravy, so I'm biast. Kids seemed to enjoy it though, so I guess it was an overall success.
