Notes
- Pat Dry: Crucial for getting a good sear. Wet meat will steam.
- Don't Crowd: Cook in batches if your pan isn't large enough to ensure a good crust.
- Garlic: Add garlic at the end so it doesn't burn and turn bitter.
- Resting: Let the meat rest for 2 minutes before serving for maximum juiciness.
