Slow Cooker Pepper Steak – 5-Ingredient. Pour sliced strips of beef in the crock with peppers and 3 ingredients of the sauce and make a meal to believe your family you have called in some takeout…

Ingredients

• 2 lb beef sirloin or flank steak, cut into thin slices.

• 2 large bell peppers (any color), cut in strips.

• 1 medium onion, sliced (not essential, but it is recommended in case your family does like onion)

• 3/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce

• 1/2 cup beef broth

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar

• 1 cup flour (tapioca powder may also be used instead of cornstarch) 2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional, to thicken at the end)

• Served rice or noodles, not part of the 5 main ingredients.

Slow Cooker Pepper Steak: Directions

1. Add the pieces of beef that you have cut in the bottom of your slow cooker.

2. Arrange the cut bell pepper and onion (in case of its use) on top of the beef.

3. Whisk the soy sauce, beef broth and brown sugar in a small bowl until the sugar has dissolved to a large extent.

4. Evenly pour the mixture of the sauce over the beef and vegetables in the slow cooker.

5. Bake and cover in LOW 6-8 hours or bake in HIGH 3-4 hours until the beef is extremely tender and the peppers are tender.

6. To achieve a thicker sauce, 20 minutes to serve, take the cold water (approximately 2-3 tablespoons) and whisk the cornstarch with the cold water to form a slurry. Add it to the slow cooker, stir and cover but continue cooking on HIGH another 15-20 minutes till the sauce is thick.

7. Add flavor and season accordingly (adding a splash of more soy sauce or pinch of brown sugar may be required).

8. Cut the pepper steak, and place it on hot cooked rice or noodles, and pour some of the additional sauce over it.
