Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs steak (sirloin or chuck), cut into bite-sized cubes
- 1.5 lbs baby potatoes or russet potatoes, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika (optional)
- 1 to 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese or cheese blend
- 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
- Sour cream, for serving (optional)
- Optional Add-ins:
- Sliced mushrooms
- Chopped bell peppers
- Dash of Worcestershire sauce or soy sauce
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine steak, potatoes, olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Toss to coat.
- Transfer everything into the crockpot and spread out evenly.
- Cover and cook on low for 6–7 hours or high for 3–4 hours, until potatoes are tender and steak is cooked through.
- About 15 minutes before serving, sprinkle shredded cheese over the top, cover again, and let melt.
- Garnish with green onions and serve with sour cream, if desired.
Notes
- Baby potatoes hold their shape best.
- Don’t add cheese too early—it’s best melted on top right before serving.
- Make it your own by adding veggies or hot sauce for extra kick.
