Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1.5 pounds round steak (or any tenderized steak (cube steak, minute steak, venison))
  • 2 tablespoons chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon all purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup butter (divided, less as needed)
  • 1 onion (sliced)
  • 15 ounces stewed tomatoes (undrained)
  • 1.5 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese

Instruction

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut the round steak into serving sized pieces.
  • Combine the chili powder, flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl. Using your hands, rub the spice mixture into both sides of the round steak.
  • Heat half of the butter in a 10 inch cast iron skillet. Cook the coated steak pieces in the hot butter on medium high until both sides are evenly browned. Do not fully cook the steak, just brown both sides. Transfer the browned steak to another dish and cover.
  • In the same skillet, melt the remaining butter. Add the onion slices and cook for about 10 minutes until they are crisp-tender and golden.
  • Arrange the prepared round steak on top of the onions. Pour the stewed tomatoes and their juice over the top.
  • Sprinkle evenly with cheddar cheese. Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Uncover and bake for another 15 minutes.
