Instructions

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the steak bites until browned on all sides if desired.
Transfer the seared steak to a slow cooker.
Pour honey garlic sauce over the steak and cook on low for 4 to 6 hours or on high for 2 to 3 hours.
For a thicker sauce, stir in the cornstarch slurry during the last 15 minutes of cooking.
