Slow Cooker Steak with Onion Soup Mix

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 to 2 pounds of steak (such as chuck, sirloin, or flank steak)

1 packet onion soup mix (like Lipton Onion Soup Mix)

1 cup beef broth or water

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce (optional, for added flavor)

2 cloves garlic, minced (optional)

1 medium onion, sliced (optional, for extra flavor)

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish, optional)

DIRECTIONS:

Step 1: Prepare the Steak and Slow Cooker

Season the Steak: Place the steak on a plate and season with salt and pepper, if desired. You can also add minced garlic for extra flavor.

Prepare the Slow Cooker: Lightly grease the slow cooker with cooking spray or a small amount of oil to prevent sticking.

Step 2: Add Ingredients to the Slow Cooker

Layer the Ingredients: Place the steak in the bottom of the slow cooker. If using, scatter the sliced onion on top of the steak.

Add the Onion Soup Mix: Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly over the steak. This mix will infuse the steak with its savory flavor as it cooks.

Pour in the Liquid: Pour the beef broth (or water) and Worcestershire sauce (if using) around the steak, not directly over it, to help distribute the flavors and keep the steak moist …
