Begin by seasoning both sides of the round steak with salt and pepper.
Spread the all-purpose flour on a large plate or shallow dish. Dredge each piece of steak in the flour, coating both sides, and shake off any excess flour.
In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the steak to the pan in batches and sear each side until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side. Remove the seared steaks and set aside.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the diced onion. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute, stirring frequently.
Stir in the tomato paste, cooking it for 1-2 minutes to deepen its flavor.
Add the diced tomatoes with their juices, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar. Stir well to combine.
Return the seared round steak to the skillet, submerging the meat in the tomato mixture.
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the steak simmer for 75-90 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Stir occasionally and ensure the mixture does not stick to the pan.
Once the steak is tender and the tomato gravy has thickened, taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving. Serve hot with mashed potatoes, rice, or crusty bread to soak up the rich tomato gravy.
