Slow Cooker Pepper Steak

Clover Meadows Beef
Prep Time 20 minutes
Cook Time 4 hours
Total Time 4 hours 20 minutes
Servings 6

Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds Sirloin or flank steak cut into 2 inch slices (or Stew Meat*)
  • 2 Tbsp Cornstarch
  • ¼ cup Water
  • 1 Onion cut into ½-inch strips
  • 2 Green bell peppers cored and cut into ½-inch strips
  • 1 Red or yellow bell pepper cored and cut into ½-inch strips
  • 1 can Stewed tomatoes with liquid 14.5 ounces
  • 1/4 cup Soy sauce, low sodium
  • 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tsp Brown sugar (or 1 tsp honey)
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Black pepper
  • 2 tsp Garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp Ginger fresh, minced
  • 1/4 tsp Red pepper flakes add to taste
  • 1 tbsp Canola oil

Instructions
 

  • Place sliced beef in bowl. Sprinkle beef with garlic powder, salt and black pepper. Toss to coat.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium high. Add the beef and cook on all sides until the beef is lightly browned, about 3-5 minutes. Transfer the beef and any cooking juices to slow cooker. (Note: This step is for flavor, and can be skipped if you're in a hurry. However, we don't recommend skipping it since it will add more flavor to the dish if you brown the beef first)
  • Add tomatoes, onions, bell peppers, ginger and red pepper flakes to slow cooker. Note: Depending on how crisp you want your peppers, you can also wait and add the bell peppers approximately one hour before you're ready to eat. This will allow them to be more crisp when served.
  • In a small bowl, mix water, cornstarch, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar. Add to slow cooker
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours, until the beef is tender 
  • Serve hot with rice

Notes

*See blog about beef cuts to determine what type of beef to use.  We typically use sirloin steak, flank steak, or occasionally stew meat when making slow cooker pepper steak.
