Fast Weeknight Swiss Steak

Tender cube steaks simmer slowly under a blanket of tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers, creating a rich, homey gravy with gentle warmth from paprika. Fast Weeknight Swiss Steak balances hearty beef with sweet, soft vegetables for a comforting bite in every forkful. Serve it over mashed potatoes or rice for an easy family dinner or casual weekend gathering.
