Ingredients
1 ½ pounds flank steak, sliced into thin strips against the grain
¼ cup cornstarch
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons minced garlic or garlic paste
1 tablespoon ginger paste
1 teaspoon Sriracha
¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
½ cup packed light brown sugar
½ cup beef broth
2-3 green onions, sliced diagonally
Directions
Slice the flank steak against the grain into thin strips. Place the steak slices in a bowl and toss with cornstarch to coat evenly.
Spread the coated steak pieces evenly across the bottom of a slow cooker.
In a separate bowl, whisk together sesame oil, minced garlic, ginger paste, Sriracha, soy sauce, brown sugar, and beef broth until well combined. Pour the sauce over the steak in the slow cooker, stirring gently to coat the meat.
Cover the slow cooker with a lid and cook on HIGH for 2-3 hours or on LOW for 5-6 hours, until the sauce has thickened and caramelized around the edges.
Once cooked, the beef should be tender and flavorful. Garnish with sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds before serving.
