Creole Seasoned Baked Steak

This was a very easy recipe to put together, the baking takes a while but is worth it. The steak was tender and the spices were fragrant and they blended nicely to create a slightly spicy dish without being too overpowering to the tomatoes, peppers and onions.

Baking this dish allows you to use a much leaner steak, because the baking time will help the meat be more tender and the overall meal healthier and low in fat. We have found that flatiron steak is lean and cooks up very tender in most dishes.

We served this meal with baked acorn squash, sprinkled with a bit of cinnamon. You could add a touch of butter - but just a touch - this squash has a creamy, sweet taste that doesn't need a lot of extras. The squash was a perfect compliment to the spicy meat.
