Description

This hearty Texas Round Steak recipe transforms a tougher cut of beef into a meltingly tender main course through slow braising. The steaks are dredged in a seasoned flour mixture and browned to develop a rich crust before being simmered with green peppers, onions, and a savory broth. The result is a flavorful, home-style dish that is perfect for weeknight dinners or feeding a crowd. It pairs wonderfully with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (165°C).
  2. In a shallow pie pan or wide bowl, whisk together the flour, salt, and chili powder until well combined.
  3. Dredge the beef steaks in the flour mixture, shaking off any excess. You will only need about half of the mixture.
  4. Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy frying pan or oven-safe skillet over medium heat.
  5. Add the dredged steaks to the pan and brown on both sides until golden.
  6. Transfer the browned steaks to a 1.5-quart casserole dish or keep them in an oven-safe skillet.
  7. In the same pan used for the meat, add the chopped green peppers and onions. Fry over medium heat, stirring frequently, until softened, about 5 minutes.
  8. Remove the vegetables with a slotted spoon and spread them evenly over the steaks in the casserole dish.
  9. Pour out any excess oil from the frying pan, leaving behind the browned bits.
  10. Return the frying pan to medium heat and add the beef broth. Stir constantly, scraping the bottom of the pan to dissolve the browned bits into the liquid.
  11. Stir in the tomato juice, garlic powder, and cumin until well combined.
  12. Pour the broth mixture evenly over the meat and vegetables in the casserole dish.
  13. Use a fork to gently stir the mixture to ensure the broth and vegetables are distributed evenly.
  14. Cover the dish tightly with a lid or aluminum foil.
  15. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender.
