SMOTHERED STEAK DEEPLY SOUTHERN

Growing up in the South, we had a neighbor that I adored, Cris Juneau, French Louisianian from New Orleans' way. She made the BEST smothered steak. Reconnecting when I was adult, she cooked her infamous dish from memory, but I watched and recreated to paper. Serve with Recipe # 27361. Simply pure southern comfort food!

SMOTHERED STEAK SKILLET

My husband's dream meal...cheese topped grilled steak with a side of potatoes, onions and mushrooms. To make this meal an event with a great presentation, while going through the whole process of the recipe, I heat up my largest cast iron pan (12 inches and buttered it to prevent sticking). Once cooked, I mound in the potatoes & mushrooms to keep them warm (careful--hot!). To save time, prep the roasted garlic ahead of time. I listed the cook time for the time it takes to grill a steak. All other time is under prep as these overlap. Note: About the steak. The size of the steak depends on what you can find. If the steak is too large, cut into smaller pieces. Also, seasoning with salt and pepper is fine, but if you want to make it ultimate, use any good marinade or rub. Some suggestions: recipe #370406, recipe #460978, recipe #451015, recipe #197598...thousands of them on food.com. The World Is Your Steak...so to speak.

Time 1h25m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 lbs red potatoes
1/2 cup milk
1/4 cup cream
3 tablespoons butter
salt, to taste
black pepper, to taste
1/4 cup garlic clove
olive oil
1/2 lb yellow onion, peeled and cut into 1/4 inch julienne strips
1/2 lb sliced mushrooms
2 tablespoons butter
granulated garlic, to taste
salt and fresh cracked black pepper, to taste
1 (2 3/4 lb) sirloin steaks (see note in description about rubs and marinades) or 1 (2 3/4 lb) smaller cut sirloin steaks, seasoned to taste (see note in description about rubs and marinades)
sauteed mushrooms or onion, see recipe
garlic mashed potatoes, see recipe
8 slices mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Garlic Mashed Potatoes: Place a single layer of garlic cloves on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil and drizzle olive oil, just enough to coat.; wrap tightly.
  • Roast in 400 degree F preheated oven for approximately 45 minutes or until soft. (This can easily be done in a toaster oven; watch carefully and will take less time.) Unwrap and let cool until touchable. Peel cloves and mash with potatoes when they are ready.
  • Wash and rinse potatoes under cold water. In large sauce pot, bring potatoes to a slow boil for approximately 20 minutes. The exact time depends on the size of the potatoes used. For faster cooking, cut into smaller pieces. Remove from heat and drain in colander.
  • In pan or bowl, combine potatoes, peeled and roasted garlic cloves and all other ingredients and smash with a potato masher; adjust milk and seasonings. Return smashed potatoes to low heat, if necessary to keep warm. (See my suggestion in description about a cast iron pan.).
  • Sauteed Onions and Mushrooms: Melt butter in skillet over medium heat and add onions and seasonings. Saute and stir until lightly caramelized. Add sliced mushrooms and stir, as needed to avoid burning, until hot.
  • Sirloin Steak Skillet: Grill steaks to desired degree of doneness; slice against the grain. Melt the slices of mozzarella cheese over each shingled steak. Top with onions and mushrooms, and serve with smashed potatoes on the side.

SMOTHERED STEAK

A good, good for you, easy Steak recipe. I used my electric skillet for this dish.

Provided by Lynn Socko

Categories     Steaks and Chops

Time 2h10m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1-2 lb top sirloin steak
1 sweet onion, sliced
1/2 c celery, chopped
water
1/2 tsp ea. of black pepper, granulated garlic, and granulated onion to season steak
pinch of course sea salt
1/4 tsp cumin
1/2 c butter, unsalted
1/2 c flour

Steps:

  • 1. I used an electric skillet for this dish. Add a little olive oil to skillet and brown steak on both sides. Add about 2 cups of water, celery and onion (you can add some sliced carrots too if preferred). Cover with lid and simmer on very low. On the electric skillet I turn the knob till the light just comes on, it will then cut off and on and as it simmers. Check skillet about every 30 minutes and turn steak and add more water if needed. When steak is done you want 2 cups of broth. Cook till will depend on thickness of steak. My steak was about 1-1 1/2" thick. Most any cut of steak will work.
  • 2. Once steak is tender (I wanted mine to the shredded point) remove steak, veggie and broth. Melt 1/4-1/2 c of butter and add the same amount of flour to make a roux. Let flour brown just a little to remove the raw taste. Add broth back to pan and mix well and allow to thicken. Add steak back into gravy and I used a potato masher to "smash" my steak and shred it.
  • 3. Serve over mashed potatoes, rice or bread for an open face steak sammie.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality chuck steak for the best results.
  • Brown the steak in a little oil before adding it to the skillet.
  • Use a flavorful broth, such as beef or chicken broth, to add moisture to the dish.
  • Add vegetables, such as onions, carrots, and celery, to the skillet for a more hearty meal.
  • Season the dish with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste.
  • Cook the steak on low heat for at least 1 hour, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Serve the steak with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.

Conclusion:

Smothered chuck steak is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. The steak is cooked in a flavorful broth until it is fall-apart tender, and the vegetables add a hearty and nutritious element to the dish. Serve the steak with mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles for a complete meal that will satisfy the whole family.
