- 1 bay leaf

Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels, then season all over with the salt and pepper. Sprinkle the flour over the beef and toss to coat evenly.

Heat 2 tbsp of the olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two or three batches to avoid crowding, add the beef in a single layer and sear undisturbed for 3–4 minutes per side, until deeply browned on at least two sides. Transfer the seared beef to a plate and repeat with the remaining batches, adding a splash more oil between batches if the pot looks dry.
