One Pot Swiss Steak With Mushrooms Recipes

Steps:

• Cut meat into 6-8 large sized pieces (meat will shrink).
• Mix the flour, salt, and pepper in a medium sized dish.
• In a 12 inch skillet heat the vegetable oil until medium hot over medium high heat.
• Dredge meat in the flour mixture well on both sides.
• Brown the meat in the oil well on both sides.
• There should be enough room in the skillet to brown all the meat at once.
• Turn the heat down to medium low.
• Pour the mushrooms and liquid over the meat.
• Top the mushrooms with the sliced onions.
• Cover and simmer 1 to 1 1/2 hours until the meat is tender.
• NOTE**** add water 1/2 cup at a time about every 15 minutes to keep the meat cooking with moist heat.
• When meat is tender turn off heat and remove meat from pan.
• 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.
• Stir constantly over medium heat until thickened.
• If gravy is too thick add more water-- if too thin add more flour mixed with cold water.
• Taste and add more salt, pepper/and or beef flavoring as desired.
• Turn heat down to low and gently slide the meat back into the gravy.
• Heat until the meat is hot again and serve.
• Great with mashed potatoes or steamed rice.
• OPTIONAL Hint: I often add a couple teaspoons of Kitchen Bouquet to the finished gravy to give it more color. I decided I should add a note about this in case others would like this helpful hint.
