Ingredients
- 8 ounces boneless beef chuck pot roast
- ¼ teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
- ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
- ¼ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- ⅛ teaspoon salt
- nonstick cooking spray
- 3 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
- 2 small garlic cloves, minced
- ⅓ cup lower-sodium beef broth
- 2 cups coarsely shredded green cabbage
Directions
- Trim fat from meat. In a small bowl, combine oregano, cumin, paprika, pepper and salt. Sprinkle mixture evenly over meat; rub the seasoning in with your fingers. Coat a medium nonstick skillet with cooking spray; heat the skillet over medium heat. Add meat to the skillet; cook on all sides until browned.
- Meanwhile, in a 1 1/2- or 2-quart slow cooker, combine carrots and garlic. Pour broth over carrots. Top with meat.
- Cover and cook on the low-heat setting for 7 to 8 hours or on the high-heat setting for 3 1/2 to 4 hours. If no heat setting is available, cook for 5 to 5 1/2 hours.
- At this point, if using the low-heat setting, turn to the high-heat setting (or if no heat setting is available, continue cooking). Add cabbage. Cover and cook for 30 minutes more. Using a slotted spoon, transfer cabbage, meat and carrots to a serving platter.
