Ingredients

Scale

Steak

  • 2 lbs (900g) sirloin steak – cut into bite-sized cubes

Marinade

  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • ¼ cup beef broth
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 garlic cloves – minced
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp black pepper

Additional

  • 2 tbsp butter – cut into small pieces
  • Fresh parsley – chopped, for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Steak: Pat the steak cubes dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture, which helps the marinade adhere better and improves texture during cooking.
  2. Mix the Marinade: In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, and black pepper until well combined to create a flavorful base for the steak.
  3. Add to Crockpot: Place the steak cubes into the crockpot, then pour the marinade evenly over the steak, ensuring each piece is coated thoroughly for even flavor absorption.
  4. Add Butter: Dot the steak with small pieces of butter, which will melt during cooking, enriching the dish with a velvety texture and enhanced richness.
  5. Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low for 4–5 hours or on high for 2–3 hours, until the steak is tender and packed with flavor.
  6. Serve: Garnish with freshly chopped parsley if desired, and serve the steak bites alongside mashed potatoes, rice, or buttered noodles for a complete meal.

Notes

  • Variations: Add a teaspoon of crushed red pepper flakes to the marinade for a spicy twist.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently to preserve the tenderness of the steak.
  • Searing Option: For extra flavor and a nice crust, sear the steak cubes in a hot skillet for 1-2 minutes on each side before adding them to the crockpot.
