Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds beef round steak
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoons paprika
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium (sliced) yellow onion
- 1 medium (sliced) green bell pepper
- 2 stalks (sliced) celery
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 14.5 ounces (1 can) diced tomatoes
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons dried thyme
- 1 teaspoons sugar
- 2 tablespoons (optional, for garnish) chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
Trim excess fat from the beef round steak, and cut it into 4 to 6 portion-sized pieces.
In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Dredge each piece of steak in the flour mixture, pressing it into the meat to coat thoroughly on both sides.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the floured steak pieces in a single layer. Sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Remove the steak pieces and set them aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onion, green bell pepper, celery, and garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened and fragrant.
Stir in the diced tomatoes (with their juices), beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and sugar. Mix well to combine.
Return the seared steak pieces to the skillet, nestling them into the sauce and vegetables. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it cook gently for 1.5 to 2 hours, or until the steak is tender and easily cut with a fork. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure the sauce doesn’t dry out; add a bit more beef broth if needed.
Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if required. Optionally, garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
Serve the Swissed Steak hot over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles for a hearty, satisfying meal.
