Wait for the bottom to get hot and then add the meat in such a way as to not overcrowd the pot. Let the meat brown 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove the meat and then add diced onions to the pot. Lower the heat if necessary and continue to sauté the onions with a tablespoon of oil. Add the diced garlic to the onions and continue to sauté until the onions become translucent.
