If you don’t have a crock pot yet, there are some nice ones on sale. I love the programmable crock pot for when I am am not at home. You can set it for the amount you need and leave the house for the day. It will cut off for when you programmed it, and keep it warm until you are ready to eat. I LOVE this feature and it is perfect for this Chinese pepper steak recipe. I also love that it will seal closed so you can transport it for parties and tailgates.
I also love my Ninja cooking system. It is pretty awesome because you can brown your ground beef or your chicken in the pot and then let is slow cook all day. That means one more less pan to cook for most recipes. This has become my new favorite crock pot just because of that one feature!
Ok, enough talking, let’s get cooking!

I bought the ingredients to make this today but never noticed it was suppose to be done in the crockpot. I guess I’m going to try and make it on the stovetop. Do you have any suggestions on how to cook it on the stove top?
Melissa says
Is it possible to cook this on high to shorten the cook time? 🙂
Nic520 says
How well do the bell peppers hold up at the end of cook time? Are they falling apart or still intact? Would it be OK to add them later during cook time? This looks so good I just want to do it right so my family enjoys it. I dont want the peppers coming out colorless and over cooked.

Carrie says
Yes, you definitely could ad them later if you are wanting them too be firmer. I would ad part in the beginning for flavor while cooking, then ad the rest later. thanks so much
Annie says
How soft will the bell pepper and onions be if I cut the bell pepper and onion about 1.5-2 inches thick? I just don’t want them mushy.
Carrie says
For this particular recipe they are cooked really well. Very soft, If your wanting firmer I would add a bit in the beginning for flavor then add some 1.5 hours before finished cooking,
