Ingredients:
For the Steak:
- 1 small ribeye or sirloin steak (6-8 oz)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon fresh parsley (for garnish)
For the Garlic Butter Potatoes:
- 1 cup baby potatoes, diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon butter
For the Eggs:
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon butter or oil
- Salt & pepper, to taste
Instructions:
- Cook the Potatoes: Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add diced potatoes, season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add butter in the last minute for extra flavor. Set aside.
- Cook the Steak: Pat the steak dry and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Heat butter in the same pan over medium-high heat. Add steak and cook for 3-4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust time for preferred doneness). In the last minute, add garlic and butter, basting the steak with the melted butter. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Cook the Eggs: In a separate pan, melt butter or oil over low heat. Crack in the eggs and cook sunny-side up, over-easy, or scrambled, seasoning with salt & pepper.
- Assemble & Serve: Plate the steak, eggs, and crispy potatoes together, garnishing with fresh parsley. Enjoy your hearty, protein-packed breakfast!
Serving Suggestions & Variations:
- Add sautéed mushrooms or spinach for extra greens.
