Ingredients
Instructions
- Sear the round steak deeply on each side in hot oil.

- Add lemon juice, melted butter, meat sauce, paprika, minced onion, and water to the skillet.

Tips & Substitutions
For a deeper flavor, consider marinating the round steak in the mustard and seasonings for a few hours before cooking. If you don't have lemon juice, vinegar can be a suitable substitute. To save time, you can skip browning the flour coating, but it adds a nice texture. For a spicy kick, add a dash of hot sauce to the sauce mixture.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the deviled round steak with mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the flavorful sauce. Steamed green beans or a fresh salad make great side dishes. For a heartier meal, pair with hearty American recipes like Cabbage And Beef Soup. The rich flavors also complement crusty bread for a complete dining experience.

Store leftover deviled round steak in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the steak and sauce in a skillet over low heat, adding a splash of water to prevent drying out. Cover and heat until warmed through, or use a microwave, heating in short intervals to maintain moisture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different cut of beef for this recipe?
Yes, you can use other cuts like chuck or flank steak, but cooking times may vary. Chuck will require longer cooking to become tender, while flank steak will be quicker. Adjust the cooking time accordingly to ensure the meat is tender and flavorful.
Is it necessary to cover the steak while cooking?
Covering the steak while it cooks helps retain moisture and speed up the tenderizing process. If you prefer a crustier top, you can leave the cover off for the last 15 minutes of cooking, but be mindful of drying out the meat.
Can I make this dish in advance?
Absolutely! You can prepare the dish a day ahead and refrigerate it. The flavors will meld beautifully overnight. Just reheat gently on the stove or in the oven before serving, adding a little water if needed to keep it moist.
