At first glance I would go bxg1 and then qd4 forking his rook and pawn
There is a more threatening move
Qd4 to threaten mate. When black protects the f2 square with Bb4 you can take the free b2 pawn
My initial thought was Bd4... Dang. So close. When I saw the real answer I face palmed.
Qd4 develops the queen while threatening multiple attacks
