Tips

  • Ensure all ingredients are prepared before cooking as it cooks quickly, almost like a stir-fry.
  • Splurging on a ribeye for the steak is recommended for the best flavor.
  • Trim excess fat from the ribeye to avoid large chunks of melted fat in a bite.
  • Cook the beef to medium-rare initially as it will continue to cook while resting.
  • Use a wooden spoon to scrape up brown bits from the pan after cooking onions to deglaze.
  • Make a hole in the middle of the pan to add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds to a minute until fragrant.
  • Cook out all the white wine until it's dry before adding flour.
  • The flour helps to thicken the sauce and the beef broth helps to loosen any stuck bits at the bottom of the pan.
