Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. Look for tenderloin strips that are fresh and well-trimmed.
  • Tenderize the tenderloin strips before cooking to make them extra tender. You can do this by pounding them with a meat mallet or marinating them in a mixture of olive oil, garlic, and herbs.
  • Season the tenderloin strips generously with salt and pepper before cooking. This will help to enhance their flavor.
  • Cook the tenderloin strips over medium-high heat so that they get a nice sear on the outside while staying tender on the inside.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the tenderloin strips. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
  • Cook the tenderloin strips until they are cooked through but still slightly pink in the center. This will ensure that they are juicy and tender.
  • Serve the tenderloin strips immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
