Notes

Best Cut of Beef – Use ribeye, sirloin, or tenderloin for maximum tenderness.
Don’t Overcook – Cook beef quickly on high heat to keep it juicy.
Enhance the Sauce – Add a splash of white wine for extra depth of flavor.
Use Fresh Ingredients – Fresh garlic, mushrooms, and onions make a huge difference.
