Gluten Free Crock Pot Orange Beef
Made from a few simple ingredients, this Gluten Free Crock Pot Orange Beef is smothered in an Asian-inspired sweet/savory orange sauce and served over rice.
Ingredients
- 1 - 1 ½ pounds flank steak or skirt steak Skirt steak is a thinner cut of beef so it will require less time in the slow cooker.
- 1 cup tamari sauce Orange beef is traditionally made with soy sauce which can be substituted for tamari to make this gluten free.
- 1 cup water
- 1 cup orange marmalade Increase to 1 ½ cups if you prefer a sweeter orange beef
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- pinch salt and black pepper Add more to taste
- 12 ounces fresh broccoli florets
- 2 cups uncooked rice
Instructions
- Add the whole flank steak or skirt steak to the slow cooker. If the steak is too large to fit into the slow cooker, cut into 2 or 3 smaller pieces.
- Combine the soy sauce, water, orange marmalade, garlic salt and pepper and mix well with a whisk.
- Pour the sauce over the flank or skirt steak and cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low for 5-7 hours, or until the meat is tender. Cook times will vary slightly depending on the slow cooker. Make sure the meat is tender before removing it.
- 15 minutes before the steak is finished cooking, add about 1 cup of the sauce to a bowl with the corn starch and mix well with a whisk. Pour the mixture back into the slow cooker.
- Prepare the rice and frozen broccoli according to the directions on package.
- Once the slow cooker has finished cooking, remove the steak and allow it sit for 10 minutes before slicing it against the grain.
- Serve the steak over a serving of rice. Top with a few pieces of broccoli. Pour the sauce over the steak and broccoli
