Smothered Minute Steak Atkins Recipes

Steps:

• Sprinkle each side of the round steak pieces with salt and pepper, rubbing seasoning into the meat.
• Combine 1/2 cup flour and garlic powder in a 1-gallon resealable bag. Add steak pieces, seal bag, and shake to evenly coat all the pieces.
• Heat 1/3 cup of oil in a large skillet over medium heat until hot. Add seasoned and floured steak pieces to the skillet in a single layer in batches and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet and keep warm. Repeat with remaining pieces, adding more oil, if necessary, until all are browned.
• Add onion slices to the same skillet and stir, coating onions with pan drippings, until onion slices have separated and are just beginning to soften, about 2 minutes. Move onions to one side of the skillet and return browned steak pieces to the skillet. Spread steak evenly in the skillet and place onions on top.
• Stir together water, beef base, and Worcestershire sauce in a microwave-safe container. Microwave on high for 1 minute, stir, and pour into the skillet. Cover, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until the steak is tender, about 45 minutes.
• Remove the steak from the skillet and add reserved 1/2 cup of flour to the pan drippings. Increase heat to medium; stir briskly and cook until bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Stir in milk and keep stirring until gravy bubbles again. Return steak, onions, and any accumulated juices to the skillet, cover, and reduce heat to a simmer. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until flavors are well combined, about 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Season steaks with 1/4 tsp salt and 1/8 tsp pepper.
• Heat 1 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp oil in large nonstick skillet over high heat.
• Add 2 steak and sear until just cooked through, about 3 min per side.
• Transfer to plate and keep warm.
• Repeat with other steaks.
• Heat remaining 2 tbsp butter and 2 tbsp oil in skillet over high heat.
• Add mushrooms and onionl saute until golden, about 8 minute.
• Add broth, any accumulated juices from the steaks, lemon juice, paprika, remaining 1/2 tsp salt, and remaning 1/8 tsp pepper.
• Cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minute.
• Pour sauce over steaks, sprinkle with parsley, and serve hot.

Steps:

• Season steaks with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon of the pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and 1 tablespoon of the oil in large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add half of the steaks and sear until just cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to plate and keep warm. Repeat with remaining steaks.
• Heat remaining 2 tablespoons butter and 2 tablespoons oil in skillet over high heat. Add mushrooms and onion; sauté until golden, about 8 minutes. Add broth, any accumulated juices from the steaks, lemon juice, paprika, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Cook until sauce thickens slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour over steaks, sprinkle with parsley and serve hot.

Steps:

• Combine the meat with the Essence and flour in a mixing bowl and toss to combine.
• Heat the oil in a large cast iron Dutch oven or high-sided skillet over medium-high heat and brown the meat, in batches, until browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Add 2 cups of the chicken broth and stir, scraping the bottom and sides of the pan to loosen any browned particles. Add the onions, bell peppers, salt, cayenne, and black pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, for 6 to 8 minutes, or until the vegetables are wilted. Reduce the heat to medium. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes. Add the remaining cup of broth and continue to cook, uncovered, for about 1 hour longer, or until the meat is very tender and the gravy is thickened and flavorful. Add the parsley and serve immediately over white rice, if using.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Steps:

• 1. Heat the butter in a large pan. Lightly salt the steak with seasoned salt and then dredge the each piece of meat in the flour. Place the meat in the hot butter and brown on each side - about 3 to 4 minutes per side.
• 2. Once browned, transfer to a plate. Add onion and mushrooms to pan and sauté for about 5 minutes. You can add more butter if needed. Add the minced garlic and sauté for an additional 2 minutes. Add sherry to the pan and scrape up all the pieces off the bottom. Place the meat on top of the onions and mushrooms. Add the beef broth and worcestershire sauce. At this point I taste the broth to see if it needs more salt - this typically depends on the sodium level of the broth. Bring to a boil. Cover and reduce to a simmer for 40 minutes.
• 3. When done, if the sauce is too thin, add a little bit of cornstarch to thicken up for a perfect gravy. I serve with mashed potatoes, corn and biscuits. I hope you enjoy.

Steps:

• In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the flour, garlic salt and pepper. Add steaks, one at a time, and shake to coat. , In a large skillet coated with cooking spray, cook steaks in oil over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side or until no longer pink.
