Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 6 medium beef blade steaks
  • 8 oz fresh mushrooms thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion sliced
  • 1 tbsp fresh thyme minced
  • 1 1/2 tsp sweet paprika
  • 3/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup dry sherry
  • 1/4 cup flour
  • 4 tbsp oil
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • 2 tbsp fresh parsley chopped
  • 1/2 cup cream

Method
 

  1. Here’s how to make this delicious Slow Cooker Swiss Steak:
  2. Season the Beef: Begin by seasoning the beef blade steaks with salt and pepper.
  3. Brown the Steaks: Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the steaks on both sides for about 3-4 minutes each. This step locks in the flavors.
  4. Sauté the Vegetables: Remove the steaks and add the sliced onions and mushrooms to the skillet. Sauté until they are softened, about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Create the Sauce: Sprinkle flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir to coat evenly.
  6. Add the Liquids: Pour in the chicken stock and dry sherry, and add the thyme and paprika. Bring the mixture to a simmer, allowing the flavors to meld together.
  7. Combine Ingredients: Place the browned steaks at the bottom of the slow cooker and pour the vegetable sauce over the top.
  8. Slow Cook: Cook on the low setting for 6-8 hours, or until the beef is tender and falls apart easily.
  9. Finish with Cream: Stir in the cream before serving and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
