Ingredients

Chimichurri sauce

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp parsley finely chopped
  • 1 clove garlic grated
  • Salt to taste

Steak and Eggs

  • 2 8 oz sirloin steaks 1/2 inch thick
  • 1/4 tsp coarse ground salt
  • 1/4 tsp freshly ground pepper
  • tsp olive oil
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 tbsp canola oil

Instructions

Chimichurri Sauce

  • Place all ingredients in a small bowl and mix thoroughly. Transfer to a serving dish and set aside.

Steak and Eggs

  • Season steaks with salt and pepper, lightly press the salt and pepper into the steaks to make sure the seasoning doesn't fall off.
  • Heat grill pan on a high heat, and when its nice and hot, pour the olive oil into the pan and then add steaks.
  • The steaks should begin to sizzle, do not disturb them, let your grill pan and heat do the work and sear the meat for 4-5 mins.
  • Once the steaks have dark brown sear marks turn them over and turn off the heat. Your pan will still be very hot and will do the job of searing the steaks on the other side. As you have no heat under your grill pan you can let the steaks rest after cooking without moving.
  • While the steaks are resting fry your eggs, two at a time.
  • Heat your fry pan on a medium heat and then add a tbsp of canola oil.
  • Crack two eggs into the fry pan and lower the heat, so that the eggs do not cook too quickly.
  • Raise the heat as you get closer to the desired wellness of each egg.
  • When eggs are almost done, spoon some of the hot oil over the yolk to make sure all of the egg is cooked.
  • Remove from fry pan onto a plate and repeat with the other two eggs.
  • Plate as desired and serve

Notes

I like to use a large plate with steak and eggs, its an a somewhat extravagant meal so a large plate adds to the whole feel. You can include the sauces on the plate as I did to use up some of the space on the plate,
