You know I love my slow cooker. Having a variety of recipes for it that are fairly simple and tasty are a life saver for a busy family. I found this recipe for Slow Cooker Pepper Steak on Recipe.com (click for link to original recipe).
You know I encourage you to make a recipe your own and that is what I did for with this recipe.
Verdict:
My family thought this was a great recipe. Check the saltiness for your family. I use a low sodium soy sauce and I was really worried about it being too salty for my family but it came out perfectly. I served over long grain rice cooked with beef stock and my kids ate it all up so there was nothing left for lunch the next day.
Slow Cooker Pepper Steak
Ingredients:
- 3 tsp. Freshly Ground Black Pepper
- 1 1/2 pounds boneless beef steak (mine was frozen so I cut into thick slices before putting it in the slow cooker)
- 1 medium onion, cut into 1/4-inch slices
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 1 packet Lipton Beefy Onion Soup Mix
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce (I use Low Sodium)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- 2 medium bell peppers any color, cut into 3/4-inch strips
- 6 cups cooked rice or noodles
-
crispy chow mein noodles for garnish, if desired
Directions:
1. In 3- to 4-quart slow cooker, layer beef, onions and garlic. In small bowl, mix soup mix, black pepper and soy sauce; pour over beef.2. Cover; cook on Low heat setting 7 to 9 hours or until beef is tender.3. In small bowl, mix cornstarch and water; gradually stir into beef mixture. Stir in bell peppers. Increase heat setting to High. Cover; cook 10 to 12 minutes or until slightly thickened. Cover; cook about 5 minutes longer until peppers are cooked through. Serve over rice or noodles.
I know what I am making tomorrow night. Thanks

Yum! I will be making this over the weekend when our temps are in the 117-120. I will not be doing in cooking that involves turning on the stove.

I like that you cook home-cooked meals for your family almost every night when you can. I try to do that too if at all possible, but seriously don’t have the time to blog about it, lol! You’ve been a great inspiration to me, though!

I am actually considering buying a new one. Mine hasn’t broken yet but I use it so much I am thinking I need an upgrade!

I like the ones that are manual, not digital. Less opportunity for breaking.
