Instructions
Cut the beef tenderloin into small bite-sized cubes.
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ground black pepper, paprika, and salt. Mix well.
Add the beef cubes into the marinade, ensuring each piece is well coated. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Add the chopped garlic and sauté until golden brown and fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Remove the garlic from the pan and set aside for later use.
In the same pan, add butter and let it melt.
Once the butter is melted, increase the heat to high and add the marinated beef cubes.
Sear the beef cubes for about 2-3 minutes, or until browned on all sides. Do not overcook to ensure tenderness.
Add the garlic back into the pan and toss everything to combine.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
