Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h15m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds beef bottom round, trimmed of excess fat
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil or bacon drippings
1 large onion, thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups beef broth

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • Cut the meat with the grain into 1/2-inch thick slices and season on both sides with the salt and pepper. Place the flour into a pie pan. Dredge the pieces of meat on both sides in the flour mixture. Tenderize the meat using a needling device, until each slice is 1/4-inch thick. Dredge the slices on both sides once more and set aside.
  • Add enough of the bacon drippings or vegetable oil to just cover the bottom of a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven set over medium-high heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the steaks to the pan, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2 minutes per side. Remove the steaks to a plate and repeat until all of the steaks have been browned.
  • Remove the last steaks from the pot and add the onions, garlic, and celery. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato paste and stir to combine. Next add the tomatoes, paprika, oregano, Worcestershire sauce and beef broth and stir to combine. Return the meat to the pot, submerging it in the liquid. Cover the pot and place it in the oven on the middle rack. Cook for 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until the meat is tender and falling apart.

BAKED SWISS STEAK

This recipe takes a tough piece of meat and turns it into a nice tender dinner. The round steak is smothered with a mixture of celery, carrot, onion, green pepper, and tomato, and baked until it is tender and delicious. I like it with mashed potatoes (but I like mashed potatoes with everything!), but it also works with noodles.

Easy and Quick Swiss Steak image

This was my favorite growing up. I was amazed when I was older and asked my mom for the recipe how EASY it is! A small amount of prep. time, a day in the slow cooker, and you'll be amazed! It sounds too simple to be good... TRUST me! This gets RAVE reviews when we make it! The amount of vegetables is only an estimate. Use as many or as few as you choose. When it's done, you will have a yummy gravy, and will have to carefully dig for the steak pieces.

SIMPLE SWISS STEAK IN A DUTCH OVEN



Simple Swiss Steak in a Dutch Oven image

All these years I've thought Swiss steak was from Switzerland! It's not. Swiss is the treatment of the steak. It's the process of rolling or pounding the tough cut to make it tender. I've kept the "Swissing" technique and added my own flavors. It's pretty simple. The hardest part is cutting the veggies. You can't beat a long braise to make meat--cut-with-a-fork tender. Feel free to add your own twist! Serve it over egg noodles and with a crusty loaf of bread.

Provided by FrackFamily5 CA->CT

Time 2h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds London broil
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon seasoned salt
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 (14.5 ounce) cans Italian-style diced tomatoes, undrained
1 cup beef stock
1 cup diced celery
2 small onions, diced
3 medium (blank)s carrots, diced
1 green bell pepper, diced

Steps:

  • Cut London broil into 2-inch cubes and spread out on a cutting board. Combine flour, seasoned salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper in a small bowl; sprinkle over meat. Toss to coat.
  • Place a sheet of plastic wrap over the steak and gently, but firmly, pound the steak with a mallet or the back of a soup ladle.
  • Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir meat until browned, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add diced tomatoes with juice, beef stock, celery, onions, carrots, and bell pepper. Mix well and bring to a boil.
  • Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Crack the lid of the pot about 1/2 inch to let the steam escape. Continue to simmer until beef is tender, about 1 hour more.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat. Swiss steak is traditionally made with round steak, but you can also use chuck roast or flank steak. Just be sure to choose a cut that is at least 1 inch thick.
  • Tenderize the meat. Pounding the meat with a meat mallet or using a fork to poke holes in it will help to tenderize it and make it more flavorful.
  • Brown the meat. Browning the meat in a skillet over medium-high heat before braising it will help to develop flavor and color.
  • Use a flavorful braising liquid. Beef broth, red wine, and Worcestershire sauce are all good options for braising liquid. You can also add vegetables, such as onions, carrots, and celery, to the braising liquid for extra flavor.
  • Cook the meat until it is fall-apart tender. This will usually take at least 1 hour and 30 minutes, but it may take longer depending on the cut of meat you are using.

Conclusion:

Oven-baked Swiss steak is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a hit with the family. With its tender meat, flavorful gravy, and creamy mashed potatoes, it's a dish that is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give oven-baked Swiss steak a try. You won't be disappointed!
