Categories     Steaks and Chops

Number Of Ingredients 9

round steak, cut in serving size pieces
1 can whole tomatoes, diced, with the juice (the chili ready diced tomatoes are really good)
1 bell pepper, chopped
1 onion, chopped
worcestershire sauce, sorry no amount, but it said it should be dark
black pepper
1 tsp sugar or 2 pkgs sweetner
flour to batter steak
oil to brown steak, if you choose to brown it

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • 2. Cut steak into serving sized pieces and dredge in flour. There's no need to brown, according to the recipe, but I did.
  • 3. Put floured steak in a large pot with a lid. (I use a large cast iron Dutch oven with a top.) Mix other ingredients in a bowl.
  • 4. Pour tomato mixture over steak, cover and bake about 1 1/2 hours or until tender.
  • 5. It's really good with biscuits or Texas Toast.
