ingredients

1/2 cup salsa
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pound flank steak, trimmed
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 yellow bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup minced fresh cilantro

directions

Combine the salsa, minced garlic, lime juice, salt, and pepper in a bowl until blended.

Place the trimmed flank steak in the bottom of the crock pot. Evenly pour the salsa mixture over the meat.

Add the sliced bell peppers and onion on top.

Cover the crock pot and cook on low for 6 hours or on high for 3 hours.

Remove the meat from the crock pot and place on a cutting board. Let stand for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, scoop out the vegetables from the crock pot with a slotted spoon and place on a platter.

After the steak has rested, slice it thinly against the grain. Place on the platter with the vegetables. Sprinkle with the cilantro.

Serve the meat and vegetables with fresh tortillas.

  1. mssbettyboop REVIEW:

    This recipe was easy to put together and delicious. I did change a few things. I seasoned the steak with cumin salt and pepper and browned on both sides then sliced up prior to placing in the crockpot. I also placed the onions and bell peppers 1/2 weays through so they would still retain a little crunch which we prefer.
