Instructions
- Dredge the steak in flour and brown well on both sides in hot fat.

- Pour off any excess fat from the skillet.
- Scrape up the browned drippings and add them to the casserole with the meat.

- Add tomato sauce on top.
- Cover the casserole and bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 1 1/2 hours.
Tips & Substitutions
For extra flavor, consider marinating the steak in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs before dredging in flour. If you don’t have fresh parsley, dried parsley can be used as a substitute. Red Skin Potatoes can also be a great alternative for a creamier texture in the dish. Be sure to let the steak rest for a few minutes after browning for better juiciness.
Serving Suggestions
This hearty dish is wonderful served with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad. It pairs beautifully with Orange Fruit Salad for a refreshing contrast. For a complete meal, consider serving with crusty bread to soak up the delicious sauce, or enjoy it alongside a glass of Grape Juice Lemonade for a balanced flavor experience.
Storage & Reheating
Leftover steak and potatoes can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place the casserole in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 20-25 minutes until heated through. Alternatively, you can microwave individual portions for a quick meal.
