Ingredients
  

For the Beef
  • 1 pound Flank Steak For a budget-friendly option, substitute with sirloin or thinly sliced chuck roast.
For the Sauce
  • 1/2 cup Soy Sauce Use gluten-free soy sauce if needed.
  • 1/4 cup Brown Sugar Coconut sugar or honey can also be used.
  • 3 cloves Garlic Minced; fresh is best, but garlic powder is acceptable.
  • 1 tablespoon Ginger Grated fresh ginger preferred; ground ginger as a substitute.
  • 2 tablespoons Cornstarch Can be omitted for low-carb diets.
  • 1 cup Beef Broth or Water Chicken broth is a good alternative.

Equipment

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Trim excess fat from the flank steak and slice it thinly against the grain, about a quarter-inch thick.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and cornstarch until smooth.
  3. Place the sliced flank steak in the slow cooker and pour the sauce over the beef, ensuring it is thoroughly coated.
  4. Cover and cook on low for about 3 hours, until fork-tender.
  5. Once cooking is complete, stir gently to mix in the sauce and serve over rice or noodles.
