In a skillet, heat some vegetable oil. Add the coated beef, minced garlic, and sliced bell peppers. Cook until the meat is browned.

Transfer the beef and peppers to your crockpot (you can line it with paper towels to absorb excess fat). Leave the oil behind in the skillet.

5 Tips for Perfect Pepper Steak:

- Don’t skip browning the meat—it adds depth and a richer flavor to the dish.
- Choose vibrant bell peppers (red, green, yellow) for a colorful and flavorful result.
- To thicken the sauce: Mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 1/4 cup cold water. Add it to the crockpot one hour before serving, stir well, and cook on high until the sauce thickens.
- Serve it with rice or noodles to soak up all the delicious sauce.
