SOUTHWEST CHUCK STEAK
I didn't have any idea what to do with the chuck steaks in my freezer so I read a few recipes here and on other sites and came up with this. I served it on rice and it was quite tasty...DH gave it two thumbs up! I prefer the Rotel brand tomatoes and for the beef base you can't beat the Better than Bouillon brand.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Cut of Meat: Select a chuck steak that is at least 1 inch thick for best results.
- Tenderize the Meat: To make the steak more tender, use a meat mallet or tenderizer to break down the tough fibers.
- Marinate the Steak: Marinating the steak helps to infuse it with flavor and moisture. Use a flavorful marinade made with olive oil, herbs, spices, and citrus juice.
- Cook the Steak Properly: Cook the steak over medium-high heat to get a nice sear on the outside while keeping the inside tender and juicy. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the steak reaches your desired doneness.
- Let the Steak Rest: After cooking, let the steak rest for a few minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more flavorful and tender steak.
