A delightful twist on the classic steak and onion gravy recipe, perfect for a comforting meal.
Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat.
Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking to properly sear the steaks.
Combine flour, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.
Mix thoroughly to evenly distribute the seasoning.
Coat the steaks in the flour mixture.
Shake off excess flour to avoid clumping.
Brown the steaks in the hot oil until golden on both sides.
Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.
Sprinkle the dry onion soup mix over the steaks.
Distribute evenly for consistent flavor.
Layer the sliced onions over the steaks.
Slice onions evenly for uniform cooking.
Sprinkle the remaining flour over the onions.
This helps thicken the gravy as it cooks.
Pour water over the mixture, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Check occasionally to ensure the liquid doesn't evaporate completely.
Serve the steaks with the onion gravy over mashed potatoes, noodles, or rice.
Garnish with fresh parsley for a touch of color.
