Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 ounces steak (sirloin, ribeye, or flank)
- 4 slices bacon
- 6 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons whole milk
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)
Instructions
Remove the steak from the refrigerator and pat it dry with paper towels. Allow it to come to room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Season the steak with 0.5 teaspoon of salt, 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper, and rub it with the paprika and garlic powder.
Once the skillet is hot, add the steak and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare or longer as desired. Remove the steak from the pan and let it rest on a cutting board for 5 minutes before slicing into bite-sized pieces.
In the same skillet, add the strips of bacon. Cook over medium heat until crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and place on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease. Once cool, chop the bacon into small pieces.
Crack the eggs into a mixing bowl. Add the milk, remaining 0.5 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel, then return it to medium-low heat. Add the unsalted butter and allow it to melt, coating the bottom of the pan.
Pour the egg mixture into the skillet and let it sit undisturbed for 10-15 seconds. Using a spatula, gently stir and fold the eggs, creating soft curds. Continue stirring until the eggs are just set but still slightly creamy.
Add the chopped steak and bacon into the skillet with the scrambled eggs. Stir everything together gently to combine and heat through, about 1-2 minutes.
Sprinkle the dish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness.
Serve immediately on plates or in bowls, and enjoy your Steak and Bacon Scramble!
