Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces beef steaks (chuck or sirloin)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1.5 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1 piece bay leaf
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons cold water
Instructions
Season the beef steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. This step locks in flavor.
Transfer the seared steaks to the Crock Pot.
In the same skillet, sauté the sliced onion and minced garlic for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant. Add them to the Crock Pot over the steaks.
Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce into the Crock Pot. Stir gently to combine.
Sprinkle the chopped thyme and rosemary over the steaks, and add the bay leaf to the pot.
Cover the Crock Pot with the lid and cook on low for 6-7 hours, or until the steaks are tender and infused with flavor.
Once the cooking is complete, remove the steaks and cover them with foil to keep warm.
To thicken the sauce, mix the cornstarch and cold water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir it into the Crock Pot liquid.
Turn the Crock Pot to high heat and let the sauce cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
Pour the sauce over the steaks or serve it on the side. Enjoy your flavorful Crock Pot steak with herbs!
