Crock-Pot Peppers and Steak Recipe

*This post contains affiliate links*

People LOVE a good crock-pot meal, but I have a confession to make. I'm not really a fan.  Usually the flavor is great, but the texture is not my cup of tea.  That's why when I try a recipe that I love, I MUST share it with you. This Crock-Pot Peppers and Steak Recipe is a new family favorite of ours.


Big on flavor and relatively inexpensive to make I know you and your family are going to love this meal so...

Let's Get started!

Crock-Pot Peppers and Steak Recipe:
*Prep Time: 30 min *Cook Time: 8-10 hours *Difficulty:  Easy  *Servings: 4-6

Ingredients:


Marinade for the Meat:

  • 1/3 c Low Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 2 Tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
Rest of Ingredients:
  • 2 lb Top Round, thinly sliced
  • 1 Onion, halved and sliced
  • 3 Bell Peppers, julienned
  • 1 28 oz. can of Diced Tomatoes
  • 3 Tbsp Brown Sugar
  • 4 Tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
  • 1 c Water
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tsp Ground Ginger
  • 3 Tbsp Rice Wine Vinegar
  • 3 Tbsp Cornstarch
  • Salt & Pepper, to taste
So to begin I want to share a little trick with you.  When slicing your meat, if you put it in the freezer 30 minutes before you cut, it will slice so much easier.  

Trim any fat from the meat and thinly slice.  



Place the meat in a resealable bag and add the cornstarch and garlic powder with some salt and pepper.


Seal the bag and shake until all the meat is coated.


Next pour in the soy sauce.


Reseal the bag and rub the marinade all over the steak and let sit in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to overnight.


Now to your crock-pot add the bell peppers and onion.
I was out of onion so I used minced onion here.  It's like Julia Child says, there is nothing that can't be fixed in the kitchen.


Now add the diced tomatoes,


Brown sugar,


Worcestershire sauce,


Garlic powder, ground ginger,


And water.


Now mix the rice wine vinegar and cornstarch together to make your slurry.


Pour the slurry into the crock-pot.


Stir it all together.


Now add the marinated meat to the crock-pot and stir it all in.


Place the lid on crock-pot and turn it on LOW for 8-10 hours or HIGH for 4-8 Hours.

I like to use the

After the recommended cooking time taste for seasoning and add any salt and pepper you may feel it needs.


Serve over a fluffy bed of rice and top with some sliced green onions and sesame seeds and there you have it! A delicious, healthy, inexpensive meal that is perfect for any night of the week!  I know you are going to love this one so get in the kitchen and give it a try TONIGHT!  And as always...
