Trim any excess fat from the round steak and cut it into large serving-sized pieces.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the round steak pieces on both sides until browned (about 2-3 minutes per side).
Remove the steak from the skillet and place it in the crock pot.
In the same skillet, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring often, until softened and fragrant. Add the onions and garlic to the crock pot.
Add the beef broth, water, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, paprika, salt, and black pepper into the crock pot. Stir to combine.
Cover the crock pot and cook on LOW heat for 6 hours, or until the steak is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
After 5 hours of cooking, rinse the rice thoroughly and add it to the crock pot. Stir gently to ensure the rice is submerged in the liquid.
Replace the lid and continue cooking for the remaining hour, or until the rice is fully cooked and tender. Stir occasionally, if needed, to prevent sticking.
Before serving, taste and adjust the seasoning with more salt and pepper, if needed.
Serve the round steak over the rice, garnished with chopped fresh parsley for a burst of color and added freshness.
