Chicana-In the Crock Pot image

My wonderful MIL lives in Callifornia and gave me this recipe. I have tweaked it a little to fit my taste. It is a family favorite of theirs, and now I can make it for mine! It is really easy to put together, but so delicious after it cooks for several hours.

Time 5h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 lbs steak (Sirloin, Chuck Roast, London Broil)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
bell pepper (1 Each ( Red, Yellow, Orange and Green)
1 large red onion
1 jalapeno (May omit if you don't like things to spicy)
3 garlic cloves, Minced
2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans diced tomatoes (I like the onion and garlic)
1 cup salsa (Any kind you prefer)
salt and pepper
ranch style beans or refried beans, Tortillas and Rice for Serving

Steps:

  • Cut the steak, bell peppers, onion and jalapeno into bite sized pieces or strips.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium-high heat.
  • Add the vegetables to the heated pan and cook until crisp-tender.
  • Add the steak and garlic to the pan with the vegetables and cook until steak is browned.
  • Add both cans of tomatoes, the salsa, and salt and pepper to taste to the pan.
  • Pour the mixture into your crockpot and cook on low for 5-8 hours.
  • Serve with tortillas, rice and beans.
  • NOTE: I gave this such a long cooking time because it definitely does not bother it to be cooked for 8 hours in the crockpot. However, it is typically done and tender in 5 hours.
