2 teas. garlic and onion powders
1 Tbls. paparika
2 Tbls. oil (either olive or Canola)
1 onion, sliced fairly thin, seperated into rings
water

Mix flour, garlic and onion powders, and paparika.
In the mean time, heat oil skillet (that has a tight fitting lid) over medium heat.
Sprinkle meat tenderizer on both sides of the meat.
Dredge both sides of the meat in your flour mixture. Reserving left over flour.
Brown both sides of the meat, being careful not to burn. If meat seems to be trying to burn, lower the heat.
When you have finished browning the meat, sprinkle the onion over top.
Pour about 1 cup water down the sides and in between the meat slices.
Cover, reduce heat to low and cook for 20 to 30 minutes.
Depending on how thick your cube steaks are.
Add about 3 Tbls. of the reserved flour mixture to 1/2 cup water. Mixing well to remove any lumps.
When cube steaks are done, remove to a warm serving platter.
Raise heat to medium again, add 1 cup water slowly.
When it starts to bubble, slowly stir in the flour mixture.
Stirring until it is all mixed and the gravy starts to thicken.
Lower you heat to low, and simmer gravy about 3 to 5 minutes. This gets rid of the starchy taste.
Stir occasionaly, to keep gravy from sticking and tho thicken nicely.
* You can add a beef boullion cube to make your gravy darker in color & richer in flavor.
