How to Make Swiss Round Steak With Onion Gravy

  1. Season the round steak generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Sear the round steak for 2-3 minutes per side, until browned.
  4. Reduce heat to medium-low, add 1 cup of beef broth, and 1 teaspoon of Worcestershire sauce to the skillet.
  5. Cover the skillet and simmer for 1 hour, or until the steak is almost tender.
  6. Meanwhile, in a separate skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat.
  7. Add 2 medium yellow onions, thinly sliced, and cook until softened and caramelized (approximately 15-20 minutes), stirring occasionally.
  8. Once the onions are caramelized, stir in 2 tablespoons of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  9. Gradually whisk in 1 cup of beef broth until smooth.
  10. Bring the gravy to a simmer, reduce heat to low, and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until thickened.
  11. Remove the round steak from the skillet and slice against the grain.
  12. Pour the onion gravy over the sliced steak and serve immediately.
  13. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
