    I browned the meat in my dutch oven, then deglazed the pan with about 1/2 c of leftover wine before adding the meat back and putting it in the oven, it made a wonderfull sauce. I used a whole large onion and added some carrots. I really felt like I was eating something much more fattening. - 3/8/10

    This was wonderful. I added fresh mushrooms and also deglazed my dutch oven as suggested. It made such a wonderful gravy. Had it over No-yolk egg noodles. My husband loved it. Will make again for sure! - 4/2/12

    I followed others' advice and deglazed the pan with some red wine, used a whole onion, and added mushrooms. The sauce was delicious and the meat was really tender. - 1/8/11

    I cut the pieces into flanks, and used brown rice flour instead of white flour. The meat was wonderfully tender, but it needed something for flavor, because there really wasn't any. Perhaps next time we'll try some minced garlic and/or crushed red pepper in the breading. - 10/6/10

    My husband would give this 4 stars but for me it was more like 3.5. Not bad, I added more onion, garlic & steak seasoning. The cooking time was spot on for a steak with just barely beyond a pink center stage. I'll try it again and maybe give it a better sear, I think that's where I went wrong. - 11/5/13

    When I make this I use eye of round and after pulling onions out of the skillet, I make a pan gravey, pour it over the steak and bake it. I bake it for about an hour- hour and a half to get full tenderness. I also add mushrooms sometimes. The gravy is great for putting on mashed potatoes. - 6/2/13

    I just took this out of the oven, it smells so good. The little bite I had to check it was wonderful, it falls apart with the fork, can't wait for dinner! I did add some garlic and red wine to the pan (used my stone casserole) before placing it in the oven, other than that went by the recipe. - 1/29/12
