Sear in fat and then simmer in a bit of liquid (6)

I believe the answer is:

braise

(Other definitions for braise that I've seen before include "Stew in a closed pan" , "13 across (anag)" , "Fry then stew, eg, steak" , "Re bias (anag.)" , "Rabies (anag.)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Washington Post.
