Ingredients:
2 lbs (900g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup beef broth.
2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon onion powder.
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish (optional).
Directions:
Prepare Steak: Pat steak cubes dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. This helps them sear better.
Mix Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper.
Add to Crockpot: Place the steak bites into the crockpot. Pour the marinade mixture over the steak, ensuring all pieces are well coated.
Add Butter: Dot the steak bites with butter pieces for extra richness.
Cook: Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or on high for 2-3 hours, until the steak bites are tender and cooked to your liking.
Serve: Garnish with chopped parsley and serve warm. These steak bites are perfect over mashed potatoes, rice, or as an appetizer.
These Crockpot Steak Bites are not only delicious but also highly adaptable to suit your taste preferences.
For variations, you can substitute the sirloin steak with other cuts like flank or ribeye for different flavors and textures.
To add a bit of heat, consider incorporating red pepper flakes or diced jalapeños into the marinade.
You can also mix in vegetables such as bell peppers, onions, or mushrooms during cooking for a heartier dish.
For a different flavor profile, try using teriyaki sauce instead of soy sauce or adding a splash of balsamic vinegar for a tangy twist.
When it comes to storage, leftover steak bites can be kept in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, simply warm them gently on the stove or in the microwave.
These flavorful steak bites are perfect for meal prep, making them a convenient option for busy weeknights or as a tasty appetizer for gatherings.
Enjoy the versatility and ease of this comforting dish!
