Swiss Steak Recipe

Swiss Steak Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Steak

   Season the beef round steak with salt and black pepper. Dredge the steak in flour, shaking off any excess.

2. 2

   Brown the Steak

   In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the floured steak and brown on both sides, about 4-5 minutes per side. Remove from skillet and set aside.

3. 3

   Sauté Vegetables

   In the same skillet, add sliced onion, green bell pepper, and carrots. Sauté until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

4. 4

   Combine Ingredients

   Return the browned steak to the skillet. Add diced tomatoes (with juice), beef broth, and bay leaf. Bring to a simmer.

5. 5

   Bake

   Cover the skillet and transfer it to a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C). Bake for about 2 hours or until the steak is tender.

6. 6

   Serve

   Remove from oven, discard the bay leaf, and serve the Swiss steak with your choice of vegetable, mashed potatoes, and gravy.
