📝 Preparation Steps

Adjust an oven rack to the lower-middle position and preheat oven to 300 degrees. Pat beef pieces dry with paper towel and season with salt and pepper.

Flip each piece of beef and continue cooking until browned on the other side. Transfer to a bowl. Heat another tablespoon of oil and repeat with remaining beef until browned. Transfer to bowl.
4
Heat last tablespoon of oil until shimmering. Add onion and celery and cook until softened, about ⏱️ 5 minutes. Stir in garlic until fragrant, about ⏱️ 30 seconds.
