How to make Easy Baked Steak and Potatoes

Preheat your oven to 300 degrees.

Prepare a roasting pan with cooking spray. Set aside.

In a large skillet, over medium to medium high heat, pour oil and wait until the oil shimmers or a drop of water flicked in it dances.

Wash and pat steaks dry with paper towels.

Season with salt and pepper.

Dump corn or potato starch on to a shallow dish.

Coat each steak on both sides and shake off excess.

Use more corn or potato starch if necessary.

When oil is ready add steaks to the skillet and cook until browned, around 4 minutes per side.

Lay browned steaks on to a plate.

Remove skillet from heat and wipe clean.

Open and add tomato paste to skillet.

We use the empty tomato paste can to measure soy sauce and water or broth.

Add to skillet and stir until incorporated.

Add onions, mushrooms, potatoes, garlic, thyme. 

Heat until boiling and pour into your prepared roasting pan.

Place steaks on top.

Cover and bake in your oven for 2 hours.

Uncover and continue to bake for 30 minutes longer.

Steaks should be nice and brown and so tender.

Season potato mixture with salt and pepper to taste.

Serve immediately and Enjoy!

When using broth watch the dish does not become too salty.  We use low sodium broth and soy sauce.  We also sprinkle a little salt on the steaks and that is it.  

We prefer the dish with broth but have used water many times as well.  If using water you will likely need to season with salt.  Either way this dish creates a fabulous meal, with the most tender steak, every time.
