Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 1 pound beef sirloin or tenderloin, cut into bite-sized pieces Choose lean cuts for lower fat content.
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil For sautéing.
  • 1 cup beef broth Enhances the flavor of the dish.
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce Adds depth to the sauce.
  • 1 onion, chopped For flavor.
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced For flavor.

Preparation
  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
  3. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute to release its flavor.
  4. Increase the heat to high, then add the beef pieces, searing them until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.
