This steak and pepper recipe is as easy as it is delicious. I’ve been making this recipe for years because it’s so easy and hearty. As a mom of a houseful of hungry kids and a husband, a recipe like this was always high on my list. Even after my kids grew up and left home, I continued to make this recipe quite often because the leftovers are just so darn good. I’d make this, and if the kids’ friends didn’t devour it the next day, we could have it for dinner the next day, as well. If you have a family, or you’re just a big fan of delicious food that’s even better the next day, then this is the recipe for you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crockpot Steak and Peppers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
This hearty, delicious recipe starts with thinly-sliced flank steak, onions, and garlic. I combine them with a delicious sweet and tangy sauce made with soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, and more, and then I cook it all in the slow cooker until the steak is tender. Before finishing, I add the bell peppers in the last hour of cooking so they’re not too crisp or too soft, and serve it over rice, noodles, or mashed potatoes. It’s a super easy recipe that anyone can make, and when it’s all done, you’ll have a dinner that satisfies everyone.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n

Recipe Tips for Crockpot Steak and Peppers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
I’ve found that a resealable bag is the easiest way to thoroughly coat the meat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Mix the sauce ingredients before adding them to the crockpot to ensure everything is fully combined.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Always wait until the last hour of cooking to add the bell peppers or they’ll turn to mush.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Variations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\n
You can use flank, top sirloin steak, or round steak in this recipe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
If you don’t have fresh garlic, you can use jarred minced garlic.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
You can slice the onions instead of dicing them and add them at the end along with the bell pepper.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n
