Steps
- 1In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat until it starts to foam. Add the beef and cook for about 10 minutes, shaking the pan occasionally, until the meat is browned and crispy all around. Remember to season the meat with salt and pepper while cooking. Once done, transfer the beef to a bowl.
