Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 1 medium Onion

Instructions

  1. 1

    Gather all ingredients. Wash, chop, and measure as needed.

    💡 Mise en place - prepare everything before cooking.

  2. 2

    Heat a large pan over medium-high heat. Add oil and allow to shimmer.

    💡 Properly heated pan prevents sticking.

  3. 3

    Place protein on hot grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side until internal temperature reaches safe levels (165°F for chicken, 145°F for beef).

    💡 Don't overcrowd the pan for best results.

  4. 4

    Add seasonings and sauce. Simmer until flavors meld.

    💡 Low heat allows flavors to develop.

  5. 5

    Taste, adjust seasoning, and serve immediately.

    💡 Fresh herbs brighten any dish.

  6. 6

    Adjust seasoning and serve hot.

    💡 Taste and adjust salt last.
