Pat steak dry with a paper towel; season with salt and Cajun seasoning, if using.
In a medium bowl, combine flour, salt, pepper, garlic and onion powders; coat with seasoned flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat oil in a cast iron or other skillet over medium-high heat; fry steak on both sides until golden brown, about 6-7 minutes per side; remove from skillet; place on a plate/platter.
Add onions and bell pepper to the same skillet; saute for about 2-3 minutes; add garlic, thyme, oregano and bay leaf; cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent burning.
Add beef back into skillet with canned tomatoes, paprika, Worcestershire sauce and about 1-2 c. water; cover; simmer for about 45 minutes until meat is tender. Remove bay leaf.
Serve warm with sauce and veggies spooned over the steak. Garnish with chopped parley, if desired.
