Description

A classic comfort food featuring tender beef simmered in a rich tomato-based sauce.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds beef round steak, tenderized
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cup chopped onions
  • 1 cup chopped bell peppers
  • 1 cup sliced mushrooms
  • 2 cups tomato sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning


Instructions

  1. Season the beef steak generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat.
  3. Brown the steak on both sides in the skillet, then remove it and set aside.
  4. In the same skillet, add the chopped onions, bell peppers, and sliced mushrooms. Sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Return the browned steak to the skillet, then add the tomato sauce, beef broth, garlic powder, paprika, and Italian seasoning. Stir well to combine.
  6. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Simmer for about 120-180 minutes, or until the beef becomes fork-tender.
  7. Serve hot over mashed potatoes or rice.

Notes

For more flavor, consider marinating the steak for a few hours before cooking.
