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:

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  • Serve with toast or avocado slices for a balanced meal.
  • Swap steak for bacon or sausage if preferred.
