3 1/2 lbs beef round steak, trimmed of fat |
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 large onion, sliced |
2 cups baby carrots, peeled |
2 garlic cloves, crushed |
1 cup beef broth |
1 teaspoon low-sodium beef bouillon granules |
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary, ground |
1 cup diced tomato (canned) |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1/4 cup water |
Directions:
1. In a large, heavy skillet, sear the beef in the oil until browned all over. Transfer the beef to your slow cooker.
2. Scatter the onion, carrots and garlic around the beef.
3. In a bowl, stir together the broth, bouillon, vinegar, and rosemary. Pour the mixture over the beef.
4. Pour the tomatoes on top.
