Begin by tenderizing the round steak if it is not pre-tenderized. Cut the steak into serving-size portions and set aside.
In a wide, shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Dredge each steak piece in the flour mixture, ensuring both sides are coated.
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear the floured steak pieces for 2-3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Work in batches if necessary, and transfer the browned steak to the crock pot.
Scatter the sliced onion and green bell pepper over the steak in the crock pot.
In a large bowl, mix the diced tomatoes (with their juice), tomato sauce, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and bay leaf. Stir until well combined and pour the mixture over the steak and vegetables in the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot with its lid and set it to cook on low for 6-8 hours, or on high for 4-5 hours. The steak should be fork-tender, and the gravy beautifully thickened.
Before serving, remove the bay leaf. Taste the gravy and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper if needed.
Serve the Swiss steak and gravy over mashed potatoes, rice, or egg noodles for a comforting and delicious meal.
