I hope you all enjoy this quick and easy dinner recipe. I came up with it a couple of months ago to add to our mealtime rotation. My son gets so excited when this recipe is the answer to “What’s for dinner?”.
I use cashew milk in place of dairy in the pan sauce and I defy anyone to tell the difference. Ok, don’t be defiant. Just trust me. It’s gooooood.

Pan Seared Cubed Steak with Mushroom Sage "Cream" Sauce (Paleo, GAPS, SCD, grain free, dairy free)
Recipe type: Main Dishes
Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 4 cubed steaks
- 1 piece bacon, chopped
- 8 oz. crimini mushrooms, washed and quartered
- ½ sweet onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon rubbed sage
- 2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
- ½ cup white wine
- 1½ cups cashew milk
- salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Salt and pepper both sides of cubed steaks. Heat a large saute pan (I use cast iron) to medium high. Add a few tablespoons of ghee or extra virgin olive oil to the pan. Add cubed steaks and cook for a few minutes on both sides or until done to your liking. Remove and set aside.
- Turn heat down to medium. Add bacon and onions and stir frequently. Cook until onion softens.
- Add mushrooms and wine and cook, stirring frequently until liquid is released from mushrooms and reduced a bit.
- Next, add sage and garlic and give a stir.
- Finally, add cashew milk and cook, stirring, until thickened to your liking. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Pour sauce over cubed steaks and serve.
Ooohhhhh….. I’ll be making this one for sure! Pinning it right now!
I like your new design. Do you mind if I ask how you posted your recipe in a “Print” box? I’ve wanted to do that forever? Thanks!
Thanks Cassidy!
I switched over to WordPress and there’s a plugin you can get called “Easy Recipes”. It gives the option of using it or not. If you use it, you fill it in easily with ingredients and instructions for the recipe and it formats it and puts it up there like cyber magic. The plugin I’m using is free, but can be upgraded for about $15 to include pictures, links, etc. I might do that in time, but first wanted to test the waters. I’m still trying to figure out the whole WP thing. I’m not very internet savvy.
Thanks for pinning!

Do you know if almond milk would work in the place of the cashew?
Hey Tina- That’s a tough one. Cashew milk has a beautiful way of thickening when cooked just like cream. I don’t think almond milk has the capacity to do that. I’ve never tried it though, so if you give it a whirl, let me know! Sorry I can’t be of much help there.

Val has made the cashew gravy for me, once over chicken and once over biscuits! OH MY WORD!! I cannot wait to try this recipe and make some gravy on my very own!
Hey Erin! So glad you’ve enjoyed it. Wish I could join you and Val sometime! Would be such sweet fellowship! Thanks for the encouragement-
