Instructions:
- Season and Brown Beef:
- Season beef with salt and black pepper. In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Brown the beef pieces on all sides. Remove and set aside.
- Sauté Onion and Garlic:
- In the same skillet, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until softened.
