Equipment

  • 1 Cast-iron skillet Essential for even heat distribution and searing.
  • 1 Spatula or wooden spoon For stirring potatoes and flipping steak.
  • 1 Chef's knife For prepping steak, potatoes, and onions.
  • 1 Cutting Board For safe and efficient ingredient preparation.
  • 1 Instant-Read Thermometer (optional) For precise steak doneness.

Ingredients
  

Main

  • 1 beef sirloin steak sliced
  • 1 pound potatoes cut into small pieces
  • salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 sweet onion chopped
  • 4 Eggland's Best eggs
  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes halved
  • Italian seasoning

Instructions
 

  • Heat a cast iron skillet over medium heat; add steak and cook 4 to 5 minutes on each side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C) for medium doneness. Remove steak to a plate and reserve the drippings in the skillet.
  • Add potatoes to the skillet; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are just tender, about 8 to 12 minutes.
  • Add onion and cook until lightly browned and the potatoes are cooked through, about 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Slice steak into pieces and return to the skillet, reduce heat to low. Make 4 shallow wells in the potato mixture and crack an egg into each one. Scatter the tomatoes throughout the skillet and cover; cook until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 6 to 12 minutes.
  • Season eggs with salt, pepper, and Italian Seasoning; serve.

Notes

Achieving a beautiful sear on your steak is crucial; ensure your cast iron skillet is piping hot before adding the beef. Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking potatoes; work in batches if necessary to ensure they brown rather than steam. For perfect eggs, cook them covered on low heat until the whites are just set and the yolks are still wonderfully runny. Consider adding a splash of Worcestershire sauce to the steak drippings for an extra layer of umami, or a pinch of smoked paprika with the potatoes for depth. A garnish of fresh chopped chives or parsley would elevate the presentation.
