How to Make Cube Steak in the Instant Pot

Step 1 – Turn the instant pot to the sauté setting.

Step 2 – Second, add the olive oil. Now, place the cube steak in the instant pot and allow them to brown on both sides. Once they are browned, remove and set aside.

Step 3 – Once all of the steaks have been browned, add the beef broth. I like to gently scrape the bottom of the pan so that you can get any of the remaining brown bits up.

Step 4 – Turn the instant pot off. Put the cube steaks back in the instant pot. Sprinkle the onion soup mix and the cream of mushroom soups on top of the meat.

Step 5 – Now that you have everything in the pressure cooker, add the lid and set the valve on top of the lid to the sealing position.

Step 6 – Let this cook on high pressure for 15 minutes. Once finished, let the pressure release naturally for 5 minutes and then move the valve on the lid to the venting position to release the rest of the pressure from the instant pot.

Step 7 – Finally, once all the pressure has been released from the instant pot, remove the cube steaks and place them on a separate plate.
