Step 4
If you have a Dutch oven with a flat bottom, sear the meat in it; if it's a traditional oven-safe one meant for the stove, sear the meat in a frying pan. Pour a couple of tablespoons of vegetable oil into the Dutch oven and heat it on the stove over high heat. Sear the meat until it develops a nice golden-brown crust.
