Dip steaks in egg mixture, then in crumb mixture., In a large skillet, cook steaks in oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until no longer pink. Remove and keep warm., For gravy, stir flour into the pan until blended. Gradually add milk, stirring to loosen browned bits from pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir 2 minutes or until thickened. Season with salt and pepper. Serve with steaks.

Steps:

• Crackers -- The first step is to crush the saltines. About 20-25 crackers will give you about 1 cup, but crush them fine. A fine crushed cracker will stay on the beef better than those not crushed well. I just use a baggie (ziploc) and my meat mallet or rolling pin. Use anything you have.
• Steak -- Bring the steak to room temp and season well with salt and pepper and make sure to rub in the seasoning.
• Breading Station -- Dip #1 - Wet -- In a small bowl or pie plate, beat the eggs well. Dip #2 - Dry -- In a small bowl or pie plate again, add the cracker crumbs, thyme, garlic, and red pepper flakes.
• Dip each cube steak into the egg mixture, then into the cracker crumbs coating well. Make sure to press the crackers crumbs into the steaks.
• Pan Fry -- In a large saute pan, heat up the olive oil to medium high heat and add the steaks. Make sure you use a large enough pan so they are not crowded. Brown well on the first side until golden brown. Then flip, you may need to add a bit more oil if the pan is too dry - not much, just a touch. Add in the sliced onion and garlic and brown the second side until golden brown as well. Then reduce the heat to low. Add 1/4 cup of the beef broth and cover. Cook 30-40 minutes until tender. Stir once or twice during cooking.
• Sauce -- Once the steaks are done, remove and cover with foil. Make sure to leave the onions in the pan. Mix the cornstarch with the remaining beef broth and pour into the pan along with the garlic and onions. Bring to a boil until thickened and then reduce the heat and just simmer 2-3 minutes. Add in the parsley and taste for any additional seasoning, salt and pepper.
• Serve -- Pour the onion gravy over the individual steaks. ENJOY! Serve this with some mashed potatoes or parsnips, peas, carrots and I love a couple of grilled portabellos. Just a great classic dish.
