Slow Cooker Pepper Steak
Ingredients
1 1/2 lbs flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced
2 tbsp olive oil
1 large onion, sliced
3 bell peppers (red, yellow, green), sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 cup beef broth
2 tbsp cornstarch + 2 tbsp cold water (slurry)
1 tbsp brown sugar
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp ground ginger
1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional for heat)
Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Directions
Brown the Steak: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced steak and sear for 2–3 minutes until browned on both sides. Transfer to the slow cooker.
Sauté Veggies: In the same skillet, cook the onion, garlic, and bell peppers for 2–3 minutes until just slightly softened. Add to the slow cooker.
Make the Sauce: In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, beef broth, brown sugar, black pepper, ground ginger, and red pepper flakes. Pour over the steak and vegetables.
Slow Cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the steak is tender.
Thicken the Sauce: In the last 30 minutes of cooking, mix the cornstarch with cold water to create a slurry. Stir it into the slow cooker and let the sauce thicken.
Garnish & Serve: Top with chopped green onions and serve hot over steamed rice or noodles. Enjoy!
