Directions
Prepare the Sauce
In a mixing glass or bowl, combine the 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 until fully dissolved.
Layer Ingredients in the Slow Cooker
Place the beef strips into the slow cooker. Pour the prepared sauce over the beef. Add the sliced bell peppers, onions, and minced garlic on top.
Cook
Set the slow cooker to LOW for 6 hours or HIGH for 3 hours. If possible, stir the ingredients halfway through cooking to ensure even flavor distribution.
Serve
Once cooked, give the pepper steak a good stir and transfer it to a serving dish. Serve over steamed rice, noodles, or as a side with mashed or baked potatoes.
Tips & Variations
Add Heat: For a spicy kick, toss in a pinch of red pepper flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
Extra Veggies: Add mushrooms, zucchini, or carrots for more texture and flavor.
Thicker Sauce: If you prefer a thicker sauce, mix an additional tablespoon of cornstarch with a little water and stir it into the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking.
Make It Ahead: This dish tastes even better the next day, so feel free to prepare it in advance and reheat when ready to serve.
