### Instructions:
1. **Season the Pork Steaks**: Generously season both sides of the pork steaks with salt and pepper.
2. **Sear the Pork Steaks**: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork steaks and sear for 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the steaks from the skillet and set aside.
3. **Sauté Onions and Garlic**: In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
4. **Deglaze the Skillet**: Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce, scraping the bottom of the skillet to release any browned bits.
5. **Add Seasonings**: Stir in the dried thyme and paprika, ensuring the sauce is well combined.
6. **Return Pork Steaks to Skillet**: Place the seared pork steaks back into the skillet, spooning some of the sauce over the top.
7. **Simmer**: Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Let the pork steaks simmer for 30-40 minutes, or until the meat is tender and cooked through.
8. **Thicken the Sauce (Optional)**: If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix the flour with a small amount of water to create a slurry. Stir this mixture into the skillet and cook for an additional 5 minutes until the sauce has thickened.

## 🍽️ Serving Suggestions
Once the pork steaks are cooked and the sauce has reached your desired consistency, it’s time to serve. Spoon the saucy pork steaks over a bed of freshly cooked rice. The rice will absorb the flavorful sauce, making each bite a delightful experience.([Wok and Kin][2])
### Additional Accompaniments:
* **Steamed Vegetables**: Serve with steamed broccoli, carrots, or green beans to add color and nutritional value to the meal.
* **Garlic Bread**: A slice of warm garlic bread can be perfect for sopping up any remaining sauce.
* **Side Salad**: A crisp side salad with a light vinaigrette can provide a refreshing contrast to the rich flavors of the pork.

## 🍷 Beverage Pairing
To complement the rich flavors of the saucy pork steaks, consider serving a beverage that balances the dish. A full-bodied red wine, such as Cabernet Sauvignon or Merlot, pairs well with the savory notes of the pork. For a non-alcoholic option, a chilled iced tea with a hint of lemon can provide a refreshing contrast.

## 💡 Tips for Success
* **Tenderizing the Pork**: If you find the pork steaks to be tough, consider marinating them in a mixture of soy sauce, garlic, and a splash of vinegar for a few hours before cooking.
* **Adjusting Sauce Consistency**: For a richer sauce, you can add a splash of heavy cream or a dollop of sour cream towards the end of cooking.
* **Enhancing Flavor**: Experiment with additional herbs and spices, such as rosemary, bay leaves, or a dash of hot sauce, to tailor the dish to your taste preferences.
