Ingredients
Units
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
- Butterfly an 8 oz. steak or buy a thin cut steak. (You want it about ½ inch thick.) Cut into 4 little steaks, about 4-5 inches wide. Season with salt, pepper, and sprinkle with Worcestershire sauce. Set aside.
- 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.
- Meanwhile, cook 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.
- 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.
- Cook egg for about 3 minutes, then gently flip over, top with a slice of cheese, and cook for another 2-3 minutes until egg is cooked to desired consistency.
- While eggs are cooking, toast bagels.
- 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.
