Grandma started making this recipe when she lived in San Francisco back in the 1950s.
Grandma's Secret Trick
For a Chinese touch, Grandma added up to 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger to the skillet when browning the steak. She also liked to add a drained 14-ounce can of bean sprouts or a few sliced water chestnuts for extra crunch.
When our folks weren’t watching, we pretended Saucy Beef Parmigiana was a finger food.
An easy, memorable dish like this made great dinner party fare at Grandma’s house.
The family loved Grandma’s wonderful enchiladas so much, she always doubled the recipe.
Italian food at our house was more than just spaghetti. It was Grandma’s special stew.
