Creole Steak
Description
This comforting Creole Steak is the ultimate one-pot meal, combining tender slices of lean round steak with chopped onions, green peppers, and tomatoes. The beef simmers slowly in a savory broth until fork-tender, absorbing the rich flavors of paprika and spices. Meanwhile, raw rice cooks directly in the pan, soaking up the delicious juices to create a fluffy, flavorful side dish. Its a rustic, satisfying supper that feels like a warm hug, perfect for busy weeknights when you want maximum flavor with minimal cleanup. Serve it straight from the skillet for a hearty, home-style experience.Ingredients
Directions
-
Cut the lean round steak into 6 or 7 equal serving-sized pieces.
-
In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, salt, paprika, and pepper.
-
Dredge the steak pieces in the flour mixture, coating them evenly.
-
Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
-
Add the chopped onion and green pepper to the hot oil and saut until lightly browned, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Remove the vegetables from the pan and set aside on a plate.
-
In the same pan with the remaining oil, brown the coated steak pieces on all sides until golden.
-
Return the browned onions and green peppers to the pan, placing them on top of the meat.
-
Cut the canned tomatoes into chunks and add them to the pan along with their liquid.
-
Sprinkle the raw rice evenly over the meat and vegetables.
-
Pour in the condensed beef broth and water, mixing everything together thoroughly.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low.
-
Cover the pan tightly and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender and the rice is cooked.
-
Check occasionally to ensure there is enough liquid; add a splash of water if needed to prevent sticking.
-
Serve hot directly from the pan.
