Description

A delicious breakfast sandwich featuring tender steak, eggs, and melted cheese, all nestled between a toasted bagel.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz. ribeye steak
  • sea salt and black pepper
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • 1/4 white onion, thinly sliced
  • 3 Tbsp. butter, divided
  • 4 eggs
  • 8 slices cheddar cheese or white American, thinly sliced
  • 4 high-quality bagels

Instructions

  1. Butterfly an 8 oz. steak or buy a thin cut steak. (You want it about 1/2 inch thick.) Cut into 4 little steaks, about 4-5 inches wide. Season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle with Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
  2. Cook onions. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat in a nonstick skillet and when it foams, add onions. Stirring occasionally, cook for about 9-12 minutes, until onions are soft and caramelized.
  3. Meanwhile, cook the steak in another pan. Heat 1 tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat in a stainless steel skillet. When it foams, add steak and cook for about 1 minute per side, until cooked through. (These cook fast so be careful not to overcook.) Remove steaks from the pan and set aside.
  4. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter in a nonstick pan over medium-low heat. When butter foams, carefully crack eggs into the pan. Gently cook, breaking the yolk if desired, and folding up the edges of the egg white to form a similar shape to the bagel.
  5. Cook the egg for about 3 minutes, then gently flip over, top with a slice of cheese, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the egg is cooked to the desired consistency.
  6. While eggs are cooking, toast bagels.
  7. Lightly butter bagels if desired, then top the bottom bagels with a slice of cheese. Add the slice of steak to the cheese and top with fried onions, egg, and cheese. Top with the top slice of bagel and serve immediately.

Notes

  • Adjust seasoning to taste.
  • Feel free to use your favorite type of cheese.
  • For a spicy kick, consider adding jalapeños or hot sauce.
