Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds Beef round steak
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Cooking oil
- 1 large Onion
- 3 medium Carrots
- 2 stalks Celery
- 14.5 ounces Canned diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons Tomato paste
- 1.5 cups Beef broth
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
- 1 piece Bay leaf
- 4 cups Mashed potatoes (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Trim any visible fat from the beef round steak. Cut the steak into serving-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, and flour. Dredge the steak pieces in the mixture, coating both sides lightly.
Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the steak pieces on both sides, about 2-3 minutes per side. You may need to do this in batches. Transfer the browned steak to the slow cooker.
Peel and thinly slice the onion. Peel and cut the carrots into 1/2-inch slices. Slice the celery into similar-sized pieces.
Place the onion, carrots, and celery on top of the steak pieces in the slow cooker.
In a medium bowl, mix together the diced tomatoes (with their juices), tomato paste, beef broth, minced garlic, dried thyme, and the bay leaf. Stir to combine.
Pour the tomato mixture over the steak and vegetables in the slow cooker, ensuring everything is evenly covered.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on low heat for 8 hours, or until the beef is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
Once cooking is complete, remove the bay leaf and discard.
Serve the Swiss steak and vegetable mixture over mashed potatoes, rice, or alongside crusty bread, if desired. Enjoy!
