- Take care not to overbrown the steaks since they are very thin.
- If the steaks aren’t fork-tender, continue to bake.
Storing Steak Leftovers
- Store leftover round steak and mushrooms in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat on low on the stovetop with a little broth to loosen the sauce if needed.
- Freeze portions in zippered bags for up to 4 months and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
