Skillet Swiss Steak
1 T. all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1 shoulder steak (12 oz.), 1/2 inch thick
1 medium yellow onion, chopped (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup diced celery
1-1/2 cups reduced-sodium beef broth, divided
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 medium tomatoes, seeded and chopped (about 2 cups)
1-1/2 cups no-salt-added crushed tomatoes
1 bay leaf
1/4 tsp. dried thyme
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
Preheat broiler. Line a broiler pan with foil. On a sheet of waxed paper, combine flour and pepper. Mix well. Dredge steak in flour mixture, turning to coat. Place steak on prepared broiler pan. Broil, turning once, until browned, about 8 minutes. Transfer steak to a cutting board; trim off fat. In a large skillet, combine onion, celery, 1 T. broth, and garlic. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add steak, chopped tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, remaining broth, bay leaf, thyme, and garlic powder. Bring mixture to a boil; cover. Simmer steak over low heat until cooked through and sauce thickens, about 35 minutes. Spoon sauce on a serving platter. Place steak on top. Serve immediately.
