1. Melt the butter in a pan on the stovetop. If you don’t want to use butter, you can substitute it with some cooking oil. Season your flour with salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Blend the spices together with a fork. You can increase or reduce the quantity of the seasonings based on your preference.
2. Ensure your pan is hot enough and well coated with the melted butter. Take the cube steaks and coat in the seasoned flour, shake the steaks a little to remove any excess flour. Put it in the pan and sear for about 3 minutes or so on each side. You can sear the steaks in batches so you don’t overcrowd your pan.
3. After the cube steaks develop a nice brown color to them, take them out of the pan and set aside.
4. In your crock pot, pour in about a quarter of your diced tomatoes, water, beef broth, and one envelope of onion soup mix. Season with black pepper, salt, paprika, and garlic powder. Chop up an onion into large pieces and add to the crock pot. Mix everything well. You can taste the mixture to see if it needs a little more seasoning or not.
5. Add your seared cube steaks into the crockpot and close the lid. Cook on low for 6 hours. You can also cook on high for about 3½ to 4 hours if you’re in a hurry. After 6 hours or so, turn off your crock pot, and you can start serving the dish.
