PIONEER WOMAN'S SWISS STEAK RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 F.
• Slice the meat 1/2-inch thick with the grain and season with salt and ground black pepper on both sides.
• Fill a pie pan with the flour.
• Dredge both sides of the slices of meat in the flour until coated.
• Use a needle meat tenderizer to tenderize the meat until each slice is 1/4-inch thick.
• Put the slices aside and dredge them with the flour again until coated on both sides.
• Set a 4 to 5-quart Dutch oven over medium-high heat with the vegetable oil or bacon drippings.
• Add the steaks to the Dutch oven once the oil begins to shimmer, being careful not to crowd the Dutch oven.
• Cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes on each side.
• Once all the steaks have been browned, remove them to a plate.
• After removing the last steaks from the pot, add the onions, garlic, and celery, and cook them for 1 to 2 minutes.
• Stir the tomato paste into the mixture. Then, add the tomatoes, paprika, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth, and stir well.
• Add the meat back to the pot, submerging it in the liquid.
• Place the pot on the middle rack of the oven and cover it.
• Bake until the meat is tender, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
• Serve and enjoy with your favorite sides.
