03 - 1 tsp table salt
04 - 1–2 tbsp olive oil for searing, optional

→ Savory Sauce

05 - 1 cup low-sodium beef stock
06 - 1/4 cup tamari (or regular soy sauce)
07 - 1/4 cup of Worcestershire sauce
08 - 3 tbsp brown sugar, tweak for taste
09 - 2 tbsp tomato paste
10 - 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
11 - 1 tsp smoked paprika
12 - 1/2 tsp powdered onion

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Dry the steak chunks with paper towels and season well using pepper and salt. For a richer flavor, you can sear the meat in olive oil for around 1–2 minutes per side in a hot skillet. Feel free to skip this step if you're short on time.
02 - Combine beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, tomato paste, paprika, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if you'd like some spice) in a bowl. Stir until smooth, and set aside.
