Ingredients

• 4 pieces Beef steaks (such as sirloin or round steak, ideally 1-inch thick)
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 3 cups Beef broth
• 0.25 cup Heavy cream (optional)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder.

Step 3

Pat the steaks dry with a paper towel, then dredge them in the seasoned flour, coating all sides evenly. Shake off any excess flour.

Step 4

In a large heavy skillet or cast-iron pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Sear each steak for 2–3 minutes per side, until they're golden brown. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.

Step 5

Transfer the seared steaks to a baking dish large enough to hold them in a single layer.

Step 6

In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, whisk in 2 tablespoons of the leftover seasoned flour mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture forms a golden roux.

Step 7

Gradually pour in the beef broth while whisking continuously to prevent lumps. Bring the gravy to a simmer and let it cook for 3–5 minutes until slightly thickened. If desired, stir in the heavy cream for extra richness.

Step 8

Pour the gravy over the steaks in the baking dish, ensuring they are mostly covered.

Step 9

Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the steaks are fork-tender.

Step 10

Remove the baking dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 11

Garnish the steaks with freshly chopped parsley and serve with mashed potatoes or rice to soak up the flavorful gravy.
