Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds round steak
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large white onion, sliced
- 8 ounces cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1.5 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 0.5 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Season both sides of the round steak with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the round steak on both sides until browned, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared steak to the crock pot.
In the same skillet, sauté the sliced onion until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until softened.
Layer the onions and mushrooms over the steak in the crock pot.
In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, dried thyme, and dried rosemary.
Pour the mixture over the steak, onions, and mushrooms in the crock pot.
Cover the crock pot with a lid and cook on low for 8 hours (or on high for 4-5 hours) until the steak is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Once cooked, transfer the steak and vegetables to a serving platter. Keep warm.
Turn the crock pot to high heat. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the remaining liquid in the crock pot to thicken the sauce, cooking for 3-5 minutes.
Drizzle the thickened sauce over the steak and vegetables. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
Serve warm and enjoy!
