Dredge the steaks in the seasoned flour. In a large skillet, brown the steaks in olive oil on both sides about 2 minutes per side. This adds flavor and texture to the dish.
Place a slow cooker liner in the base of the cooker for easy clean up. Arrange the green peppers and half of the onion on the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle with more Mediterranean seasoning, salt and black pepper.
Arrange meat on top. Arrange the remaining onion over the top of the steaks.
In the same skillet, whisk together the fire roasted tomatoes, flavor boost, brown sugar, bay leaves, 3 t. Mediterranean seasoning, red pepper flakes and tomato paste. Season with salt and black pepper. Scrape any brown bits off the bottom of the pan and pour over the steaks.
Cook on Low 6 hours or High 3-4 hours. If you want to thicken the sauce, carefully remove the steaks to a platter and cover with foil. Stir 1-2 T. additional tomato paste into the sauce to thicken to your taste]
Serve over mashed potatoes, rice or egg noodles. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley and a sprinkle of grated Parmesan or Swiss cheese, if desired.
