Description

This Crockpot Loaded Steak and Potato Bake is a comforting, hearty dish perfect for an easy weeknight dinner. Tender cubes of sirloin steak are slow-cooked with diced russet potatoes, onions, and a flavorful garlic-beef broth mixture. Topped with melted cheddar cheese, sour cream, and fresh green onions, this savory casserole offers a delightful combination of textures and rich flavors with minimal prep time.


Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 2 pounds sirloin steak, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 4 large russet potatoes, diced
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Chopped green onions for garnish


Instructions

  1. Season the Steak: In a large bowl, season the cubed sirloin steak with salt, pepper, and paprika, tossing to coat evenly for a well-flavored base.
  2. Layer the Ingredients: Place the diced potatoes and chopped onion in the bottom of the crockpot, then add the seasoned steak cubes on top to build the layers.
  3. Prepare the Sauce: In a separate bowl, combine the minced garlic, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour this mixture evenly over the steak and potatoes to infuse flavor and moisture.
  4. Slow Cook: Cover the crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 to 8 hours or on high heat for 4 to 5 hours, until the steak is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
  5. Add Cheese: About 15 minutes before serving, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top and cover the crockpot again to allow the cheese to melt perfectly.
  6. Serve: Drizzle the dish with sour cream and garnish with chopped green onions. Serve hot for a comforting and satisfying meal.

Notes

  • You can substitute sirloin steak with ribeye or chuck steak for a different flavor and tenderness.
  • Russet potatoes work best for baking, but Yukon Gold potatoes can also be used for a creamier texture.
  • Adjust the cooking time in the crockpot based on your appliance—for slower models, extend the low cooking time by an hour.
  • For added vegetables, consider mixing in diced carrots or bell peppers at the layering step.
  • This dish can be prepared the night before; just refrigerate and cook in the crockpot the next day.
  • Leftovers refrigerate well and can be reheated in the microwave or oven.
