1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
2 pounds beef top round steak, cut into serving-size pieces
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced

1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 1/4 cups beef broth or water
Optional: Hot cooked noodles or mashed potato
Directions:
Preheat oven to 325°. In a large shallow dish, combine flour, salt and pepper. Pound steak with a mallet to tenderize. Add meat, a few pieces at a time, and toss to coat.
In an ovenproof Dutch oven, brown steak in oil on both sides. Arrange onion slices between layers of meat. Add water and Worcestershire sauce.
Bake, covered, 2 to 2-1/2 hours or until meat is very tender. Remove meat to a serving platter and keep warm.
For gravy, in a small bowl, combine flour, salt, pepper and broth until smooth; stir into pan juices. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook and stir 2 minutes or until thickened. If desired, serve steak and gravy with noodles or mashed potatoes.
