Steps

Season cube steaks generously with salt and pepper. Dredge each steak in flour, shaking off excess.

Add sliced onions to the same skillet and sauté until softened and lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Sprinkle remaining flour over the onions and stir for 1 minute to cook the raw flour taste.

Gradually whisk in beef broth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the skillet. Bring to a simmer and cook until the gravy thickens, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. If gravy is too thick, whisk in a little water.
