Lay the thinly sliced flank steak pieces flat on a work surface and season both sides with salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
Spoon 1-2 tablespoons of cooked chili onto each slice of steak. Top with shredded cheddar cheese and a sprinkle of chopped cilantro.
Carefully roll each steak slice tightly around the chili filling and secure with 1-2 toothpicks. Repeat for all slices.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak roll-ups for 1-2 minutes per side until browned. This step locks in the flavor.
In the crock pot, combine beef broth, diced tomatoes, and minced garlic to create the cooking liquid.
Place the seared steak roll-ups into the crock pot, arranging them in a single layer. Spoon some of the cooking liquid over the top to keep them moist.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6 hours or until the steak is tender and the flavors have melded together.
Once cooked, remove the steak roll-ups from the crock pot and let them rest briefly. Remove toothpicks before serving.
Serve the roll-ups with a drizzle of the cooking liquid and garnish with additional fresh cilantro, if desired. Pair with rice, mashed potatoes, or a side salad for a complete meal.
