Chef's Secrets
"Don't over-crowd the pan when searing meat to ensure a nice crust."
"Always taste your food and adjust seasoning (salt and pepper) at different stages."
"Let meat rest for at least 5-10 minutes after cooking to retain its juices."
"Prep all your ingredients (mise en place) before you start the heat."
