Step 1

Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a cast iron Dutch oven. Add onion and green pepper and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Remove onion and green pepper to a bowl and set aside.

Step 2

Season both sides of cube steak with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. You want a thick coating of flour because it will help thicken the sauce.

Step 3

Add 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to Dutch oven. Working in 2 batches, cook cube steak until browned on both sides (it will not be cooked through).

Step 4

Leave the second batch of cube steak in the Dutch oven and return the first batch plus the onion and green peppers to the Dutch oven.

Step 5

Add remaining ingredients and stir to mix. Cover Dutch oven (I leave a little gap) and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally to make sure nothing on the bottom burns.
