#### **Instructions:**
1. **Prepare the Beef**: Start by seasoning the beef strips with salt and pepper. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil and butter. Once the butter is melted, add the beef to the pan in batches, making sure not to overcrowd it. Sear the beef for about 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. Once the beef is browned, remove it from the skillet and set it aside.
2. **Sauté the Onion and Garlic**: In the same skillet, add a little more butter if needed and sauté the onions until soft and translucent, about 4-5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for an additional 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
