Creating Slow Cooker Hungarian Goulash is easy if you follow these simple steps:
1. Brown the Beef: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef cubes and brown them on all sides. This step adds depth to the flavor.

3. Transfer to Slow Cooker: Place the browned beef and sautéed vegetables into the slow cooker.
4. Add Remaining Ingredients: Pour in the beef broth, diced tomatoes (with juice), paprika, tomato paste, oregano, salt, black pepper, bay leaf, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir well to combine.
5. Cook: Cover the slow cooker and set it to low for 6-8 hours or high for 3-4 hours, until the beef is tender.
6. Add Peas: About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the frozen peas. Cover and cook until heated through.
7. Garnish: Before serving, remove the bay leaf and garnish with chopped fresh parsley.
