Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef sirloin or flank steak
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 large Yellow onion
- 8 ounces Cremini or button mushrooms
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Slice the beef into thin strips, about 1/4-inch wide. Season with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Toss with the flour to lightly coat the beef.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil. Sear the beef strips in batches until browned on all sides, about 1-2 minutes per side. Transfer the browned beef to the slow cooker.
Thinly slice the yellow onion and mushrooms. Add them to the slow cooker on top of the beef.
In a bowl, whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and soy sauce. Pour the mixture over the beef and vegetables in the slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and set it to cook on LOW for 6-7 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours. The beef should be tender, and the flavors should be well combined.
About 20 minutes before serving, mix the cornstarch with water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the slow cooker to thicken the gravy. Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes on HIGH until the gravy thickens.
Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving, if desired.
Serve over mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered egg noodles for a hearty and delicious meal.
