Glad to hear you enjoyed! And yes, you can certainly do the onions first and set aside - it's that choice between cooking at the same time v less to clean up, very much whatever works best for each cook.

Good recipe, but I take the onions out, tent with foil and use the same pan. Less oil and less mess.

Thanks. I think the best thing is to get to know your source, such as through a good butcher. We get a meat box which is pretty consistent which is another way.

I just saved this for later. Cuban food is one cuisine I have only started to appreciate. This looks amazing and I can't wait to try.

Cuba is one of those countries I'm dying to visit, so it's nice to enjoy (at the very least) some of the flavors from the country. Thanks for sharing!

Yummy this looks mouth-watering. I love minute steak when I can get a good one but lately, they have been so tough! What do you look for when picking out your minute steak?

Thanks Karen. It's funny how memories can influence what we think of a food item, but this is definitely worth trying!

Thanks Camilla, you can just go for round steak and tenderize yourself first. Either way hope you give it a try!

There's quite a difference between many US and UK cuts, actually, that took some learning for me! But as you learn them, it helps prompt trying new things like this.

It's not something I had noticed, really, but now I'd happily buy it to make this!

I grew up with minute or cube steak, and don't have the fondest memories of it, probably because of the way my mother cooked it to death, but this sounds delicious! Thanks for the great theme!

They add such a bright, fresh flavor!

I've grown up with cube steak and being from the round of beef, it mostly gets used for one traditional American meal: Swiss steak. And that doesn't mean it comes from Switzerland, but the method of Swissing meat is cutting little holes in it and the connective tissues inside, either with a bladed chopper or by pounding. Even then, the meat is braised to break it down more, becoming the Swiss steak in tomato gravy. But it is also done without braising, as this is often used in Chicken Fried Steak or also Milanesa, breaded and lightly fried. And as we see here, marinating can help it also, especially with a little extra pounding. And then the short cook time will suffice. I've not seen this done with Cuban steak except as a very thin cut like we use in Milanesa, or I have seen it also done with ground beef. It's great to see it done with a variety of cuts so we know how to make a certain dish with what we have on hand.

Pinning it for later!
