Ingredients

2 lbs beef sirloin strips or sirloin steak cut into slices

3 large colorful bell peppers, sliced thick

1 large onion, sliced

3 garlic cloves, minced

¾ cup beef broth

3 beef bouillon cubes

¼ cup soy sauce

2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

2 tablespoons honey

1 teaspoon ground ginger

½ teaspoon black pepper

½ teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons cornstarch or flour

Instructions

  1. Make the Sauce: In a mixing glass, combine hot beef broth, bouillon cubes, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, honey, ground ginger, black pepper, salt, and cornstarch (or flour). Stir well, crushing the bouillon cubes as you mix.
  2. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the beef strips into the slow cooker. Pour the sauce mixture over the beef. Add the sliced peppers, onions, and minced garlic on top.
  3. Cook: Set the slow cooker to LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours. If possible, stir the ingredients halfway through for more even cooking.
  4. Finish the Dish: When the cooking time is up, stir the mixture well. Transfer to a serving dish and serve over rice, noodles, or as a side with mashed or baked potatoes.

Notes

For added veggies, consider adding carrots, snap peas, or mushrooms.

For a spicy version, add jalapeños or red pepper flakes to the sauce.

Make it gluten-free by using tamari or gluten-free soy sauce.

For a sweeter sauce, increase the honey by an additional tablespoon.
