About this recipe

This oven-baked beef steak becomes tender and flavorful thanks to marination. Since it is cooked in the oven, minimal oil is used, and the meat slowly cooks in its own sauce, making it a healthy yet hearty main dish. Perfectly paired with bulgur pilaf or steamed vegetables for a balanced meal.
