Question: To sear meat
Option 0: Using a stainless steel or a cast iron skillet, add a few teaspoons of vegetable oil and set the pan on a stovetop over high heat. Pat the meat dry as the pan heats to prevent steaming. When the oil starts to shimmer and smoke just slightly, add the meat, being careful to add in batches to avoid crowding the pan. Leave for a few minutes to sear. Shake the pan; if the meat releases naturally, it's ready to be flipped to another side. Sear all sides of the meat before moving to the next step of the recipe.
