Crock Pot Pepper Steak

Ingredients:

• 16 oz beef stew meat
• 2 bell peppers (assorted colors)
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
• 3 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon minced garlic
• 1 can beef broth
• 1 can stewed tomatoes
• 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour

How To Make Crock Pot Pepper Steak:

1. In a large bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and seasoned salt. Coat the beef stew meat in this mixture, ensuring each piece is well coated.
2. In a skillet, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the coated meat, minced garlic, and bell peppers (cut into strips). Cook until the meat starts to brown, allowing the flavors to meld.
3. Remove the meat and peppers from the skillet, leaving the grease behind, and transfer them to a lined slow cooker.
4. In the same skillet, where the meat was cooked, add stewed tomatoes with their juice and one can of beef broth to the remaining oil. Gradually add the flour while stirring to create a rich gravy.
5. Pour the gravy over the meat and peppers in the slow cooker, ensuring all ingredients are well coated.
6. Cook covered on low for 8 hours, allowing the crock pot to work its magic and infuse the dish with rich, slow-cooked flavors.

Tips:

• The seasoned salt and flour coating on the beef stew meat not only enhances the flavor but also helps thicken the gravy during the cooking process.
• Using a mix of colorful bell peppers adds visual appeal to the dish while providing a variety of flavors. Feel free to use your favorite bell pepper colors for a personalized touch.
• Browning the meat and peppers in the skillet before transferring to the slow cooker helps to lock in flavors and create a more complex taste profile.
• Gradually adding the flour to the skillet while stirring prevents lumps and ensures a smooth, velvety gravy for the pepper steak.
• Allow the slow cooker to work its magic on low heat for 8 hours, allowing the meat to become fork-tender and absorb the savory goodness of the peppers and gravy.
• This Crock Pot Pepper Steak is a versatile dish that pairs well with rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes. Experiment with different sides to find your perfect combination. Whether you’re a busy cook or just looking for a comforting meal, this recipe is sure to become a go-to favorite. Enjoy the simplicity and rich flavors of this slow-cooked delight!
