CROCK POT SALSA STEAKS



Crock Pot Salsa Steaks image

This was a throw-together dish that resulted from defrosted meat, no fresh veggies, and a deep desire to break out my crock pot. The meat was falling apart tender (enough so that my 14 month old could eat it with no problems) and the juice was perfect over mashed potatoes. I'm sure you could use more steaks that what I did for the amount of juice, but this is typed out just as I made it.

MOROCCAN CUBE STEAKS



Moroccan Cube Steaks image

This would be Moroccan inspired rather than something that is actually eaten in Morocco. It is quick and easy and has a nice flavor. Any pepper will do but if you use a yellow or orange one the dish is prettier. This is good served over coucous.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat. Cube steak is a good choice because it's thin and tenderizes easily. You can also use flank steak, skirt steak, or hanger steak.
  • Tenderize the meat. Pounding the meat with a meat mallet or using a fork to poke holes in it will help to tenderize it and make it more flavorful.
  • Marinate the meat. Marinating the meat in a mixture of oil, vinegar, herbs, and spices will help to add flavor and moisture. You can marinate the meat for as little as 30 minutes or up to overnight.
  • Cook the meat over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the meat and lock in the flavor. Cook the meat for 3-4 minutes per side, or until it is cooked to your desired doneness.
  • Serve the meat with your favorite sides. Salsa cube steaks can be served with a variety of sides, such as rice, beans, vegetables, or salad.

Conclusion:

Salsa cube steaks are a quick and easy weeknight meal that is packed with flavor. By following these tips, you can make sure that your salsa cube steaks are tender, juicy, and delicious. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give salsa cube steaks a try!
