Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 lbs. cubed beef stew meat
- 1 cup Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki sauce
- 1 cup diced white onion
For Serving
- Toasted sesame seeds (to sprinkle)
- Sliced green onion (to garnish)
- Steamed white or brown rice (as base)
- Broccoli or sugar snap peas (steamed, as a side)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Cube the beef stew meat into bite-sized pieces and dice the white onion to ensure even cooking and better flavor infusion.
- Add to Slow Cooker: Place the cubed beef, diced white onion, and the entire cup of Soy Vay Veri Veri Teriyaki sauce into the slow cooker. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients evenly.
- Cook: Cover the slow cooker with its lid and cook on HIGH for 4 hours or on LOW for 6 hours. The slow cooking will tenderize the beef and allow it to absorb the teriyaki flavors deeply.
- Prepare Sides: While the beef is cooking, steam your preferred rice (white or brown) and vegetables such as broccoli or sugar snap peas to serve alongside the beef.
- Serve: Once cooked, serve the teriyaki beef over the steamed rice. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onion to add extra flavor and a nice presentation touch.
Notes
- For a thicker sauce, remove the lid during the last 30 minutes of cooking to allow some liquid to evaporate.
- Substitute beef stew meat with chicken thighs or pork shoulder for variations.
- Adjust vegetables according to preference or seasonality.
- Ensure rice is cooked fresh or warmed before serving for best texture.
- Use low-sodium teriyaki sauce if you want to reduce the salt content.
