Instructions
Cut steaks into six or eight pieces.
Place flour in a large resealable bag.
Add beef, a few pieces at a time, and shake to coat. In a large skillet, brown meat in oil on both sides.
Transfer to a greased 2-1/2-qt. baking dish.
In the same skillet, combine the soup, water, salt and pepper; bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
Pour over steak. Cover and bake at 350° for 50-60 minutes or until meat is tender.
For dumplings, combine bread crumbs and 2 tablespoons butter in a small bowl; set aside. In another bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt and poultry seasoning. Stir in milk and remaining butter just until moistened.
Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls into the crumb mixture; roll until coated.
Place dumplings over steak.
Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 20-30 minutes or until dumplings are lightly browned and a toothpick inserted near the center comes out clean.
Recommended wine: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Noir
Steak can be paired with Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Pinot Noir. After all, beef and red wine are a classic combination. Generally, leaner steaks go well with light or medium-bodied reds, such as pinot noir or merlot, while fattier steaks can handle a bold red, such as cabernet sauvingnon. The Provenance Vineyards Napa Valley Merlot with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 34 dollars per bottle.

Provenance Vineyards Napa Valley Merlot
Silky and elegant, this Napa Valley Merlot gracefully reveals its fruit-driven character of ripe cherry and blackberry compote. Hints of dark chocolate and hazelnut meld with a savory edge of pipe tobacco and bay leaf. The well-knit acidity enlivens the mouth-filling flavors, while supple tannins frame the wine and give age worthiness. Complex baking spice nuances weave through this Merlot's generous varietal expression.
