Ingredients
- 2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 4 large russet potatoes, diced
- 1 onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Chopped green onions for garnish
Instructions
1. In a large bowl, season the cubed sirloin steak with salt, pepper, and paprika, tossing to coat evenly.
2. Place the diced potatoes and chopped onion in the bottom of the crockpot, then add the seasoned steak on top.
3. In a separate bowl, mix the minced garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour over the steak and potatoes.
4. Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or high for 4–5 hours, until the steak is tender and the potatoes are soft.
5. About 15 minutes before serving, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and cover the crockpot to let it melt.
6. Drizzle with sour cream and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot!
Notes
For firmer potatoes: Cut them into larger chunks to prevent them from becoming mushy.
Alternative cuts of steak: Chuck roast or flank steak work well, but sirloin remains the most tender.
Make it in the oven: Bake in a covered dish at 350°F for 1.5 to 2 hours until tender.
Extra toppings: Try crispy bacon bits, jalapeños, or ranch dressing for added flavor.
