Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces (about 6 ounces each) beef round steaks
- 0.5 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoons salt
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large, thinly sliced yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 2.5 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1.5 pounds baby potatoes
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Season the beef round steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper.
Place the flour in a shallow dish and dredge each steak in the flour, coating both sides. Shake off any excess flour.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steaks for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned but not cooked through. Transfer the seared steaks to the slow cooker.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium. Add the sliced onion and garlic, cooking for 2-3 minutes until fragrant and softened. Transfer them to the slow cooker on top of the steaks.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the beef broth, tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, and dried thyme. Pour this mixture over the steaks and onions in the slow cooker.
Add the baby potatoes to the slow cooker, spreading them around the steaks and submerging them slightly in the liquid.
Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 6-7 hours, or until the steaks are tender and the potatoes are fully cooked.
After cooking, carefully remove the steaks and potatoes from the slow cooker and place them on a serving platter. Cover with foil to keep warm.
To thicken the gravy, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl to create a slurry. Stir the slurry into the liquid in the slow cooker. Turn the slow cooker to HIGH and cook for 5-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the gravy thickens.
Pour the thickened gravy over the steaks and potatoes. Serve hot and enjoy!
