Time 2h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 lbs flank steaks or 2 lbs sirloin steaks, about 1 to 2 inches thick
1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium onions, sliced
1 cup water
1/2 cup flour
salt & freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Coat the steak with as much flour as will adhere.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over high heat and brown the steak on both sides.
  • Place the steak in a large baking dish or pan with a lid.

  • Add this liquid to the baking dish with the steak, along with the other ingredients.
  • Cover and cook on top of the stove over low heat for 2 hours, or bake in a 325ºF oven for 2 hours.

The steak was a little tough, but the gravy was delicious. I would make this again, but I would cook the steak for a shorter amount of time.

I followed the recipe exactly and the steak turned out tough and dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.
