Notes

Choose the Right Steak: Use tender cuts like sirloin or ribeye for the best results.
Cook in Batches: Avoid overcrowding the skillet when searing the steak for even browning.
Make it Spicy: Add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce for some heat.
Swap the Veggies: Use whatever vegetables you have on hand, like carrots, green beans, or bell peppers.
