Tip
Cleaning out the pan after
browning the beef helps
cut down on cleanup after
dinner, and don't fret about
the caramelized onions
sticking to your pan after
you've washed it. When
you add the broth, the
liquid will help you scrape
up the browned bits from
the bottom of the pan and
incorporate their flavor
into the finished dish.
