Today I am craving Swiss steak, which is one of my favorites, but Jeff just doesn't like it at all, so I am going to make a few alterations to see if I can get him to eat it.
I will start with a round steak (any fairly tough cut of beef works well), cut into serving size pieces. Dredge in flour seasoned with onion powder, garlic powder, chili powder and paprika, and brown in a hot skillet. While the beef is browning, pour enough rice in the crock pot for your family, add 1/2 tomato juice and 1/2 beef broth to make up the liquid to cook the rice. When the meat is nice and brown, layer it over the rice in the crock pot. Add a little of the flour used to dredge the beef to the skillet, scraping the browned bits of flour up in the pan. pour in enough broth to make a thin gravy, and stir till smooth. Pour over the contents of the crock pot, cover and simmer on low all day. Usually this recipe calls for lots of onions and tomato sauce (no beef broth) so I am trying to tone it down a little for the picky eater.
Serve this with mashed potatoes (Jeff doesn't like the rice in this dish at all), and a green veggie. Happy Thursday Everyone!
