Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef chuck steak
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 3 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 large Yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cups Beef broth
- 0.75 cup Sour cream
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped (optional garnish)
Instructions
Season both sides of the beef chuck steak with salt and black pepper.
Lightly coat the beef with all-purpose flour, shaking off any excess.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the floured steaks to the skillet and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Transfer the steaks to the slow cooker.
In the same skillet, add the sliced onions and cook for 3-4 minutes until they are softened. Transfer the onions to the slow cooker, layering them over the steak.
Pour the beef broth over the steak and onions in the slow cooker.
Cover the slow cooker with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 hours or until the steak is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
In a small bowl, whisk together the sour cream, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce.
Once the steak is fully cooked, carefully remove it from the slow cooker and place it on a serving platter. Cover loosely with foil to keep warm.
Whisk the sour cream mixture into the cooking juices in the slow cooker. If the sauce is too thin, mix the cornstarch and water together in a small bowl to form a slurry. Whisk the slurry into the sauce and cook on HIGH for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
Pour the sauce over the steak and garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Serve alongside mashed potatoes, noodles, or rice.
