Measuring Spoons
Measuring Cups
Large skillet
Bowl
Whisk
Spatula or spoon for stirring

Ingredients

2 pounds beef sirloin sliced into 2-inch strips
¾ tsp garlic powder
3 tbsp vegetable oil
1 beef bouillon cube
¼ cup water hot
1 tbsp cornstarch
½ cup onion chopped
2 green bell peppers large, chopped
14.5 ounce stewed tomatoes 1 can, with juice
3 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp white sugar
1 tsp salt

Instructions

Sprinkle beef strips with garlic powder. In a skillet, heat oil over medium heat and sear the beef until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes per side.
Transfer the seared beef into the slow cooker.
In a small bowl, dissolve the bouillon cube in hot water. Whisk in the cornstarch until smooth.
Pour the bouillon mixture into the slow cooker. Add onion, bell peppers, stewed tomatoes (with juice), soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Stir everything together.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 3–4 hours or on LOW for 6–8 hours, until the beef is tender and the peppers are cooked but still vibrant. Stir once before serving and enjoy!

Notes

For crisper peppers, add them during the last hour of cooking.
This dish is perfect served over white rice, brown rice, or egg noodles!
