Our ladies' group held monthly dinners at our church to raise money and this is one of the dishes we served. We never had to advertise these dinners - word about the good food got around quickly.

Ingredients

2 pounds beef top round steak
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper, divided
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
Hot cooked noodles, optional

Directions

Cut steak into serving-size pieces. Combine flour, salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper; sprinkle over steak and pound into both sides. In a skillet over medium heat, brown steak on both sides in oil.
Transfer to a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish; top with onion and green pepper. Drizzle with soy sauce; sprinkle with garlic salt and remaining pepper.
Cover and bake at 325° for 1-1/2 hours or until meat is tender. Serve with noodles if desired.

I had a chuck steak and I wanted a recipe that would cook low and slow to tenderize it. This recipe turned out great and really tenderized the meat. The onions and green pepper were also delicious! A great recipe for your less tender cuts of meat!

I have made this recipe a handful of times and it always comes out moist and delicious. The beef is very tender and its very easy to put together. I serve mine with mashed potatoes or egg noodles.
