Description

This Crockpot Loaded Steak and Potato Bake is a comforting and hearty one-pot meal perfect for busy days. Tender sirloin steak, diced russet potatoes, and onions slow-cooked with beef broth and ranch seasoning create a flavorful base.

Ingredients

Scale

Steak and Vegetables

  • 2 pounds sirloin steak, cubed
  • 6 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1 medium onion, chopped

Liquids and Seasonings

  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons ranch seasoning mix
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Finishing Touches

  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup green onions, sliced (for garnish)


Instructions

  1. Prep the Ingredients: Begin by cubing the sirloin steak, peeling and dicing the russet potatoes, and chopping the onion to prepare all the components for layering in the Crockpot.
  2. Combine in the Crockpot: Place the cubed steak, diced potatoes, and chopped onion into the Crockpot bowl evenly for even cooking.
  3. Add Broth and Seasoning: Pour 1 cup of beef broth over the ingredients. Stir in 2 tablespoons of ranch seasoning mix along with salt and pepper to taste to infuse the mixture with flavor.
  4. Slow Cook the Mixture: Cover the Crockpot and cook on low heat for 6 to 7 hours, or until the steak becomes tender and the potatoes are fully cooked through.
  5. Incorporate Sour Cream and Cheese: Once cooking is complete, gently stir in 1/2 cup sour cream, then sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese evenly on top of the mixture.
  6. Melt the Cheese: Cover again and cook for an additional 10 to 15 minutes to allow the cheddar cheese to melt completely and become bubbly.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Remove from heat and garnish with 1/4 cup of sliced green onions for a fresh and colorful finish before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use fresh sirloin steak that is evenly cubed for consistent cooking.
  • You can substitute russet potatoes with Yukon gold potatoes for a slightly different texture.
  • If you prefer a spicier flavor, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chili flakes.
  • This recipe reheats well, making it perfect for leftovers or meal prep.
  • To make it low fat, use reduced-fat sour cream and cheese varieties.
