Slow cooker honey garlic steak bites are an easy way to make an impressive meal everyone will love. Seared steak bites are cooked low and slow in the crockpot in a quick honey garlic sauce until fall-apart tender and full of flavor. Served over rice or noodles for a comforting meal or on a mini skewer for a game day appetizer!
To a large skillet over medium high heat, add the sesame oil.
Add the stew beef and cook until browned. We are not thoroughly cooking the meat, just searing it to lock in flavor.
Add the seared beef to the basin of a 6 quart slow cooker.
To a medium bowl, whisk together the minced garlic, honey, ketchup, soy sauce, and oregano and pour over the meat in the slow cooker, stirring to combine.
Cover and cook on LOW for 4 hours, or until the beef is tender.
If the sauce starts to get too thick before the beef is tender, add ½ cup of water.
If the sauce is too thin, before serving mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with ¼ of water and stir into the sauce.
Garnish with sesame seeds, parsley, or scallions and serve with rice!
Notes
The beef will take on a dark color because of the soy sauce.Store the leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Every slow cooker runs differently. I recommend keeping this one on LOW to avoid burning the honey. Your slow cooker may need up to 6 hours but mine is done at 4 hours.
