Ingredients:
- 2 lbs beef steak, cut into thin strips
- 2 bell peppers, sliced (1 red, 1 green)
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon water
- Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
- Prepare the Ingredients:
Place the beef strips, sliced bell peppers, sliced onion, and minced garlic in the crock pot. - Mix the Sauce:
In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and beef broth. Stir to combine and pour this mixture over the beef and vegetables in the crock pot, ensuring everything is evenly coated. - Cook:
Set the crock pot to cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours. The slow cooking process makes the beef tender and the flavors meld beautifully. - Thicken the Sauce:
About 30 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a smooth slurry. Stir this mixture into the crock pot to thicken the sauce. Let it cook for the remaining time, allowing the sauce to absorb the cornstarch flavor. - Season:
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed, keeping in mind the saltiness from the soy sauce. - Serve:
Serve the pepper steak hot over cooked rice or noodles to soak up the savory sauce.
