Best Steak Recipe – Cook like a Chef
Introduction;
Experience the warmth of a loved family tradition in this southern recipe: Slow cooker pepper steak. Derived from loving homes in the Midwest, where it was deeply loved; because of its tender beef aroma, supple and caramelized onions it had always been prepared fondly, with such colorful vegetables added making it much special. Years have gone by since I have been using this formula as a mother who wants to have a unique taste experience without going through any stress; hence this has been part of our lives in terms of food.
Ingredients:
3 pounds flank steak, thinly sliced
4 bell peppers (assorted colors), sliced
2 onions, thinly sliced
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 cups soy sauce
1 1/2 cups water
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 cup brown sugar
Instructions:
Prep the Steak: Slice the flank steak into strips and coat evenly with cornstarch by placing them in a ziplock bag, sealing it, and shaking gently.
Create the Sauce: In the slow cooker, combine olive oil, brown sugar, soy sauce, water, and minced garlic. Stir until well combined.
Add the Beef: Carefully place the cornstarch-coated beef strips into the slow cooker, ensuring they are submerged in the sauce.
Slow Cook: Set the slow cooker to low and cook for approximately 6 hours, allowing the flavors to meld and the beef to tenderize.
Introduce the Veggies: Around 1.5 hours before the end of the cooking time, add sliced onions and peppers to the slow cooker, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Final Stretch: Continue cooking until the vegetables are slightly softened and have absorbed the flavors of the sauce.
