  • Melt 1/2 stick butter in large skillet, when butter is bubbling and starting to brown add steaks to pan. Cook for 3 minutes on each side, making sure pan is hot enough to give steaks a nice crisp layer on outside. Remove steaks to a clean plate.
  • Add second 1/2 stick of butter to hot pan, add in sliced onions and mushrooms, sauté for 5 minutes, over medium high heat. Add bouillon, stir into vegetables, continue to cook for a minute longer.
  • Sprinkle reserved flour over mushrooms and onions and move around in pan allowing flour to form a paste and start to bubble up with vegetables. Pour in beef stock. Stir until smooth.
  • Return steaks to pan, pushing down into gravy. Cook over low heat for 15 minutes turning steaks over once in gravy.
