SMOTHERED ROUND STEAK WITH GRAVY



Smothered Round Steak with Gravy image

This is one of the first recipes I learned to cook when I was a teenager. Mom taught me to cook over the phone, after I got home from school every day. She was working and I didn't think about it at the time, but later I realized my calls were reassuring to her, since she knew I was safely home. Even when Mom told me how to do it, I nearly always tweaked it! Most of the time, it turned out okay. Mashed potatoes and biscuits are perfect with this, along with a vegetable.

Provided by Bibi

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (2 1/2 pound) tenderized round steak, cut into 6 pieces
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 cup all-purpose flour, divided
1 teaspoon garlic powder, or to taste
½ cup cooking oil, divided
1 large onion, sliced
1 cup water
1 teaspoon beef base (such as Better than Bouillon®)
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups milk

Steps:

  • Sprinkle each side of the round steak pieces with salt and pepper, rubbing seasoning into the meat.
  • Combine 1/2 cup flour and garlic powder in a 1-gallon resealable bag. Add steak pieces, seal bag, and shake to evenly coat all the pieces.
  • Heat 1/3 cup of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add seasoned and floured steak pieces to the skillet in a single layer in batches and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with remaining pieces, adding more oil, if necessary, until all are browned.
  • Add onion slices to the same skillet and stir, coating onions with pan drippings, until onion slices have separated and are just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Move onions to one side of the skillet and return browned steak pieces to the skillet. Spread steak evenly in the skillet and place onions on top.
  • Stir together water, beef base, and Worcestershire sauce in a microwave-safe container. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and pour into the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the steak is tender, about 45 minutes.
  • Remove the steak from the skillet and add reserved 1/2 cup of flour to the pan drippings. Increase heat to medium; stir briskly and cook until bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Stir in milk and keep stirring until gravy bubbles again. Return steak, onions, and any accumulated juices to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors are well combined, about 10 minutes.

  • In a 12 inch skillet heat the vegetable oil until medium hot over medium high heat.

  • Top the mushrooms with the sliced onions.
  • Cover and simmer 1 to 1 1/2 hours until the meat is tender.

  • Add 3-3 1/2 cups of cold water to the remaining flour which wasn't using with dredging.
  • Stir well to remove lumps.
  • Slowly add to the drippings in the pan.

"SWISS" ROUND STEAK WITH ONION GRAVY



We always called this "Salisbury Steak", but it does not have tomatoes. Comfort food at it's best...

Provided by papergoddess

Categories     Steak

Time 2h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2-2 lbs round steaks
1/2-1 cup flour
salt
pepper
2 -3 tablespoons oil
1 large onion, sliced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 -3 cups beef broth

Steps:

  • Cut round steak into 6 serving size pieces.
  • On a cutting board, dredge pieces with flour, salt and pepper.
  • Pound flour into the meat with a meat mallet.
  • Turn pieces, dredge, and pound until they can't hold any more flour.
  • (This can be a messy process, so be warned!).
  • In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil and brown steak pieces on both sides.
  • Place in a covered casserole.
  • Add onions and garlic to the skillet.
  • Saute until onions are limp (5 minutes).
  • Place onions and garlic over steak pieces in casserole dish.
  • Add enough beef broth to barely cover meat.
  • The flour from the meat will thicken the broth as it bakes and will make its own gravy.
  • Bake at 300F for 2 hours or until fork-tender.
  • Serve over noodles or mashed potatoes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of meat. Look for a round steak that is at least 1 inch thick and has good marbling.
  • Tenderize the meat before cooking. This will help to break down the tough fibers and make the steak more tender. You can tenderize the meat by pounding it with a meat mallet or by marinating it in a mixture of vinegar, oil, and spices.
  • Cook the steak over medium-high heat. This will help to sear the meat and create a nice crust. Once the steak is seared, reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the steak to your desired doneness.
  • Make the onion gravy while the steak is cooking. This will allow the flavors of the onions and beef to meld together.
  • Serve the steak with the onion gravy and your favorite sides. Some popular sides for Swiss round steak include mashed potatoes, green beans, and carrots.

Conclusion:

Swiss round steak with onion gravy is a classic comfort food dish that is easy to make and delicious. By following the tips above, you can make sure that your steak is tender, juicy, and flavorful. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give Swiss round steak with onion gravy a try.
