🥩 Ingredients

• 1 lb (450 g) sirloin steak, cut into bite-sized cubes
• 4 large eggs
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
• ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
• 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan, optional

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Prepare the Steak

Pat the steak pieces dry with paper towels.

Season with salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, and Italian seasoning.

2. Sear the Steak Bites

Heat a large cast-iron or heavy skillet over medium-high heat.

Add the olive oil.

Once hot, add the steak bites in a single layer. Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

Sear for approximately 2–3 minutes per side, depending on the size of the pieces and your preferred doneness.

Transfer the steak to a plate.

3. Make the Garlic Butter

Reduce the heat to medium.

Add the butter to the same skillet.

Once melted, add the minced garlic and red pepper flakes if using.

Cook for about 30–60 seconds, until fragrant.

Add the Worcestershire sauce and stir to combine.

4. Return the Steak

Return the steak bites to the skillet.

Toss them through the garlic butter for 1–2 minutes until coated and heated through.

Push the steak bites toward the sides of the skillet, leaving some space in the center.

5. Cook the Eggs

Add a little extra butter to the center if needed.

Crack the eggs directly into the skillet.

Cover and cook until the egg whites are set and the yolks reach your preferred doneness, usually 3–5 minutes.

For fully cooked yolks, cook a little longer.

6. Finish and Serve

Sprinkle the skillet with fresh parsley and Parmesan if desired.

Spoon the garlic butter over the steak and eggs.

Serve immediately while everything is hot.
