HEARTY SWISS STEAK
I've been using this recipe since I was married in 1952. My husband let me know early on in our marriage that this dish was one of his favorites, so I still make it often. I think most men like it because of the hearty portions of meat and noodles.

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.

SWISS STEAK
An old family favorite salvaged from our 30-plus-year-old cookbook. We like this served over egg noodles. I like to increase the tomatoes to a 15 ½-ounce can, and I use a full green pepper and add a teaspoon of paprika.

Steps:
- Cut the beef into thin, 2 x 1/4-inch strips. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat 2 T of oil in a large, heavy skillet over med-hi heat. Add the meat and sear for approximately 1 minute on each side or until just browned. Remove from the skillet with a slotted spoon and keep warm.
- Add the remaining 1 T oil to the skillet and heat. Add the mushrooms, carrot, and onion and sauté until the mushrooms give up their juice, about 8 minutes.
- Return the beef to the skillet and stir in the wine and broth. Continue to sauté until the meat is just done, 1 to 2 minutes for rare. Stir in the butter until just melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately.
Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef. Chuck steak is the most commonly used cut for Swiss steak, as it is a tough cut that becomes tender when braised. Other good options include round steak, rump steak, and flank steak.
- Tenderize the beef. Pounding the beef with a meat mallet or rolling pin helps to break down the tough fibers and make it more tender.
- Use a good quality flour. All-purpose flour is typically used for Swiss steak, but you can also use bread flour or cake flour. Bread flour will give the steak a chewier texture, while cake flour will give it a more tender texture.
- Brown the beef in a hot skillet. Browning the beef helps to develop flavor and color. Be sure to brown the beef in batches so that it does not overcrowd the pan and steam.
- Use a flavorful braising liquid. Beef broth, red wine, and tomato sauce are all good options for braising Swiss steak. You can also add vegetables, herbs, and spices to the braising liquid to create a more flavorful dish.
- Cook the steak until it is tender. Swiss steak is typically cooked for at least 1 hour, or until the beef is fall-apart tender. You can check the tenderness of the steak by inserting a fork into it. If the fork slides in easily, the steak is done.
Conclusion:
Swiss steak is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. By following these tips, you can make a delicious Swiss steak that your family and friends will love.
