Instructions
- 1
Pat the beef cubes dry with paper towels and season all over with the 1/2 tsp salt. Heat the coconut oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat until shimmering. Working in two batches to avoid crowding, sear the beef on two sides until deep brown, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the seared beef to a plate and set aside.
