Italian Swiss Steak

¼ c. flour
2 lbs tenderized beef round steak, cut into serving-size pieces
¼ c. butter
1 can diced tomatoes
⅛ tsp. salt
1 Tbs. Italian seasoning
⅛ tsp. pepper
¾ c. chopped green pepper
¾ cups chopped onion
6 oz. shredded Mozzarella


Optional: marinate steak in Itallian dressing or other marinade.  Place flour in a large, resealable plastic bag. Add beef, a couple of pieces at a time, and shake to coat. Remove meat from the bag , shaking off the excess flour.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown steak on both sides in butter. Add the tomatoes, salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove cover, turn meat, and re-coat the tops of the steak with the surrounding sauce. Add green pepper and onion. Cover and simmer for another 15 minutes or until vegetables and steak are tender. Turn off heat and sprinkle each steak with shredded cheese. Replace the cover for a couple of minutes until the cheese melts. Serves 6-8.
