Why Are My Sirloin Bites Not Browning?
Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the butter and olive oil. If the skillet is not hot enough, the meat will not brown.
Also, do not crowd the skillet or the excess meat juices will cook the meat without browning it. Once you place the meat on the skillet, do not move it around. Let it sear without touching it for a couple of minutes on each side.
