Servings | Prep Time | Cook Time | Total |
6-8 | 15 min | 6 hours | 6 hours 15 min |
Note: The prep time includes the time needed to cut the steak into strips, coat it with corn starch, and slice the onions and peppers. It does not include the time needed to brown the steak or mix together the sauce.
Ingredients:
- 3 lbs flank steak
- 1/2 cup corn starch
- 3 tbsp olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/2 cups soy sauce
- 1 1/2 cups water
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 2 medium onions, sliced
- 2 green peppers, sliced
- 2 red peppers, sliced
Directions:
- Cut the flank steak into thin strips and place them in a large ziplock bag.
- Add the corn starch to the bag, seal it, and shake well to coat the steak evenly.
- Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the coated steak to the skillet and brown it on all sides, stirring occasionally. This should take about 5 minutes.
- In a separate bowl, mix together the minced garlic, soy sauce, water, and brown sugar until well combined.
- Transfer the browned steak to a slow cooker and pour the sauce over it. Cover the slow cooker and cook on low heat for 6 hours.
- After 4 1/2 hours, add the sliced onions, green peppers, and red peppers to the slow cooker. Mix well to combine the ingredients.
- Cover the slow cooker and continue cooking for an additional 1 1/2 hours, until the vegetables are tender and the steak is fully cooked.
- Serve over steamed rice, spaghetti noodles, steamed veggies or quinoa.
Cook Notes:
- To save time, you can prep the steak and vegetables the night before and store them in the refrigerator until you’re ready to cook.
- For a spicier version of this dish, add some red pepper flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce to the sauce mixture.
- If you prefer your vegetables to be more crunchy, add them to the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cooking instead of the last 1 1/2 hours.

I’m going to try this tomorrow thank you
I need slow cooker recipes and these look delicious
Brown sugar for diabetic?
Crazy
Splenda makes a brown sugar that can be used in place of the regular sugar.
Try Swerve brown sugar. I have used it for several years and it tastes great! My granddaughter is a DM1 so I understand your concerns.
What can I use instead of peppers, doesn’t agree with my husband’s stomach
Mushrooms, carrots, broccoli, 🤷♀️
Can I use my stew meat?
Don’t use green peppers, use red, yellow and orange
Can this be frozen please? Tia
You could add water chestnuts, snow peas, kale, green onions
mmmmmm I need to make this soon
Like all of these.
I’m excited to try this recipes
This look so easy and delicious, I will
try this in my slow cooker.
Can I add salt to taste and black pepper as well. How bout beef cubes?
Thank in advance for responding
Got to make this/sounds yummy
I made this today for dinner but unfortunately it is too salty. 1.5 cups of soy sauce is too much.
UsUse the low sodium soy sauce. I like it much better.
Totally what I thought reading the recipe
Use low-sodium soy sauce.
YIvwpulf use aower sodium soy sauce
I never use the full salt version as it is way too salty for most dishes.
They have a low sodium soy sauce I don’t know if that helps
I would use less soy sauce and beef broth in place of the water. I think 1/4 cup of soy sauce would make.more sense. I’m going to make this today and I’ll let you know how it turns out.
Try coconut aminoes. It’s a healthier substitute but with a better flavor 🙂
The print version of this recipe has totally different instructions and ingredients
If you click on the recipe without clicking on view full recipe you can print it out. With my printer, I can just print out the pages I want, which is 3-5.
I’ve tried this recipe with the family when they all come round off dinner and every time I cook it I have to add extra meat as it’s never enough,I use mash potatoes and veg,never anything left the three times I’ve made it.Very nice,just have to put more liquid with it but you realise that when you add more ingredients,can’t recommend this dinner more highly.Thank you
Going to try this. Looks delicious
Looks god I am going to try it thanks for the recipe
I made this today, but only used 1/4 cup of soy sauce and substituted the water with low sodium chicken broth. Turned out fantastic and not salty at all. Going to serve it over rice.
Can’t use cornstarch or soy or sugar, non friendly for diabetes. What are subsitutes?
Splenda makes a brown sugar that is amazing! Can be found at Walmart. It works great! And it’s diabetic friendly.
