Slow Cooker Pepper Steak Recipe

Directions

1. Prepare the Sauce
   In a mixing bowl, combine the hot beef broth, bouillon cubes, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, ground ginger, black pepper, salt, and cornstarch (or flour). Stir well until the bouillon cubes are fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
2. Layer Ingredients in the Slow Cooker
   Place the beef strips in the bottom of the slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the beef. Top with the sliced bell peppers, onions, and minced garlic.
3. Cook
   Set the slow cooker to LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours. If possible, give the mixture a gentle stir halfway through cooking to ensure even flavor distribution.
4. Serve
   Once cooked, stir the pepper steak well and transfer it to a serving dish. Serve over steamed rice, noodles, or alongside mashed or baked potatoes for a hearty meal.

Tips & Variations

• Add Heat: For a spicy twist, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the sauce mixture.
• Extra Veggies: Toss in mushrooms, zucchini, or carrots for added texture and flavor.
• Thicker Sauce: If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix an additional tablespoon of cornstarch with a little water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
• Make It Ahead: This dish tastes even better the next day, so prepare it in advance and reheat when ready to serve.
