Ingredients
Scale
- 1 ½ pounds round steak
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ cup yellow onion chopped
- ½ cup green pepper chopped
- 28 ounces canned diced tomatoes with juices
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Cut the round steak into large, even cubes, about 2 inches each.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, garlic powder, black pepper, and salt. Add the steak cubes to the mixture and coat thoroughly.
- Heat olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat. Brown the steak cubes on both sides for about 3 minutes each.
- Add the chopped onion and green pepper to the pot, sautéing for 4 minutes while stirring frequently to avoid burning.
- Stir in the diced tomatoes with their juice, beef broth, and Worcestershire sauce until well combined.
- Cover the Dutch oven with a lid and place it in the preheated oven. Cook for 1 ½ to 2 hours, or until the steak is fork-tender.
- Serve the Swiss Steak over a bed of mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles.
Notes
Browning the steak properly adds depth of flavor to the dish.
For a thicker sauce, you can combine a tablespoon of cornstarch with water and stir it in during the last 10 minutes of cooking.
