Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Sirloin steak
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 units Large eggs
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Remove the sirloin steak from the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature for about 20 minutes.
Pat the steak dry with paper towels. Season both sides evenly with black pepper and garlic powder.
Heat a heavy skillet or a cast iron pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter. Swirl to coat the pan.
When the butter has melted and starts to foam, add the steak to the pan. Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, adjusting the time depending on the thickness of the steak and your preferred doneness.
Once cooked, remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board, tented with aluminum foil, for about 5 minutes.
While the steak is resting, wipe out the pan with a paper towel and add the remaining 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.
Crack the eggs into the pan, cooking them in the residual steak juices over medium-low heat. For sunny side up eggs, cook for about 2-3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny.
Slice the steak against the grain into thin strips and plate alongside the eggs.
Garnish with finely chopped fresh parsley if desired and serve immediately.
