Slow Cooked Sirloin


1 boneless beef sirloin steak (about 1 1/2 lbs)
1 medium onion, cut into chunks
1 medium green pepper cut into chunks
1 can beef broth
1/4 c. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp dill weed
1/4 tsp dried thyme
1/4 tsp black pepper
dash of crushed red pepper flakes
2 Tbsp cornstarch
2 Tbsp water

In a large nonstick skillet, brown beef on both sides. Place onion and green pepper in slow cooker; top with beef. Combine the broth, Worcestershire sauce, dill, thyme, black pepper and pepper flakes; pour over beef. Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or until meat reaches desired doneness.Transfer cooking juices into a small saucepan over medium high heat. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; gradually stir into cooking juices and continue to stir until thickened.

*I generally serve this with rice or baked potatoes. We love the flavor of the onions and green peppers, but we don't necessarily like them in the gravy, so when making the gravy I only remove the juice. I love this recipe because it's really fast to put in the crockpot and it smells delicious while it's cooking!

*I'm sure I found this in a cooking magazine somewhere, but I can't remember which one - I've been making it for a few years now and it's definitely a family favorite!
