Slow Cooker Pepper Steak

Ingredients

  • 2 lbs. beef round steak
  • 2 T. Olive Oil
  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1 small yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 4-5 tomatoes cut into eighths (or 1 can tomatoes-16oz-with liquid, cut up)
  • 2 large green peppers, cut into strips
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 T. cornstarch
  • Cooked noodles or rice


Instructions

  1. Cut beef into chunky strips, brown in oil in a skillet. Transfer to a crockpot. Combine the next seven ingredients; pour over beef. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until meat is tender. Add tomatoes and green peppers; cook on low for 1 hour longer. Combine the cold water and cornstarch to make a paste; stir into the liquid in the crockpot and cook on high until thickened (thickening takes longer than you think-allow time for this). Serve over noodles or rice.
