Ingredients
2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized pieces
1 cup beef broth
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Instructions
1. Cut the sirloin steak into even bite-sized pieces and place them in the crockpot.
2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the beef broth, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, brown sugar, onion powder, and black pepper.
3. Pour the sauce mixture over the steak bites in the crockpot.
4. Add the butter on top in small pieces.
5. Cover and cook on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours, until the steak is tender.
6. In the last 20 to 30 minutes, mix the cornstarch and water in a small bowl until smooth, then stir it into the crockpot to thicken the sauce.
7. Cover again and let the sauce thicken.
8. Sprinkle with chopped parsley and serve warm over mashed potatoes, rice, or noodles.
Notes
Use sirloin for tender steak bites that hold their shape well during slow cooking.
Do not add too much extra liquid, since the steak will release juices as it cooks.
For the best sauce texture, stir in the cornstarch slurry only near the end of cooking.
