Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 1 minute.

Add beef in a single layer. Let it sear 2–3 minutes without stirring until golden, then stir and cook 2 more minutes.

Add onion and carrot. Stir and cook for 3 minutes until softened at the edges.
Step 4
Pour in cider, vinegar, and broth. Add thyme. Bring to a simmer.

Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is tender and sauce reduces slightly.
