Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces beef steaks (sirloin, chuck, or round)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 large yellow onion, sliced
- 4 medium Russet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into large pieces
- 2 cups beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water (for cornstarch slurry)
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Season both sides of the steaks with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Sear the steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side until browned. This step adds flavor, but you can skip it if short on time.
Place the sliced onion evenly at the bottom of the crock pot. Layer the browned steaks on top of the onion.
Add the potato chunks and carrot pieces around and on top of the steaks in the crock pot.
In a small bowl, whisk together the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce. Pour the mixture over the steaks and vegetables.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low heat for 6-8 hours or until the steak is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
About 30 minutes before serving, make the cornstarch slurry by mixing the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth. Stir the slurry into the crock pot to thicken the cooking liquid into a gravy. Let it cook for an additional 30 minutes.
Once done, taste and adjust seasonings if necessary. Serve the steak and vegetables warm, spooning the gravy over the top.
Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired and enjoy your crock pot steak dinner!
