Preparation
  1. Season the beef generously with salt and pepper.

Cooking
  1. Add the seasoned beef to the skillet, browning it on all sides for about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.

For added flavor, consider marinating the beef beforehand. You can also substitute various vegetables or herbs as desired. If a thicker sauce is preferred, mix a cornstarch slurry during the simmering process.
