Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef round steak
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes (with juice)
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
Instructions
Trim any excess fat from the beef round steak and cut it into serving-sized pieces.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, pepper, and paprika. Dredge each piece of beef in the flour mixture, ensuring it is well coated on all sides. Shake off any excess flour.
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the floured beef pieces and brown them on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the beef from the skillet and set it aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion and green bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables start to soften.
Return the browned beef to the skillet. Add the diced tomatoes (with their juices), beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and garlic powder. Stir gently to combine.
Bring the mixture to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and cook for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the beef is fork-tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the Swiss steak hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles. Enjoy!
