The Easiest Mongolian Beef Recipe

Move over PF Changs! Who here loves Chinese take-out style meals?  *raises hand frantically*  I love all the bold flavors, great sauces, and how quickly things cook!  One thing I don’t like though, is how hectic it can be to cook take-out style meals at home.  The nature of a stir fry is that things cook really quickly, which means you have to have every component in the recipe ready to go… and things can STILL get stressful right?

Hey guys, it’s Amanda from The Chunky Chef.  I love being a contributor here on TSRI, and will be here sharing some of my favorite recipes each month!  This meal has been in my family’s rotation for a while now, and I just knew I had to share it with all of you!

The main thing I love so much about this Mongolian beef recipe is that unlike, some slow cooker meals, it’s made entirely in the crock pot, with no extra steps to take.  No browning the meat, no broiling… just adding all the ingredients, turning on the slow cooker and walking away.  Simply amazing.

And this meal is certainly not short on flavor!  The garlic and ginger bring plenty of classic Mongolian beef flavor, and combined with sweet/heat combination of brown sugar and Sriracha sauce… it’s a powerhouse of amazing flavors!

Helpful Tips to Make Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef:

• Slice your flank steak against the grain.  As you’re looking at the beef, you’ll see lines, like the grain on a piece of wood.  You want to slice it across those lines, not alongside them.  Doing this ensures an incredibly tender piece of beef.
• The carrots are optional, but add a great texture!
• Add the Sriracha to your tastes.  I like this recipe to have a little heat to balance out the sweetness.
• To make this a complete meal, add some steamed broccoli!

What You Will Need to Make Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef:

• 4 quart slow cooker – My absolute favorite slow cooker!
• Sriracha Sauce - a must in every kitchen
  

Enjoy!
