Notes

  1. Sirloin works best for tender, flavorful bites that won't become tough.
  2. Brown beef pieces first for extra flavor depth and better texture.
  3. Keep potato pieces uniform for even cooking throughout the dish.
  4. Place potatoes on bottom as they take longer to cook than beef.
  5. Never substitute garlic powder for fresh minced garlic in this recipe.
