Ingredients

• 2 pounds beef round steak
• 1 teaspoons salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 large onion
• 1 medium green bell pepper
• 2 stalks celery
• 14.5 ounces diced tomatoes
• 2 tablespoons tomato paste
• 1 cup beef broth
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoons paprika

Directions

Step 1

Season both sides of the beef round steak with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Lightly dredge the seasoned steak pieces in the flour, coating evenly.

Step 3

In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat and sear the steak pieces for 2-3 minutes per side until browned. Do this in batches if necessary. Set aside.

Step 4

Slice the onion, chop the green bell pepper, and dice the celery. Add these vegetables to the bottom of your crock pot as the base layer.

Step 5

Place the seared steak pieces on top of the vegetables in the crock pot.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes (with their juice), tomato paste, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix thoroughly.

Step 7

Pour the tomato mixture over the steak and vegetables in the crock pot, ensuring everything is well coated.

Step 8

Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours, or until the steak is fork-tender.

Step 9

Stir gently before serving to combine the flavors. Serve hot with mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles for a complete meal.
