Ingredients:
2 large croissants 🥐
1/2 lb steak (ribeye, flank, or sirloin), sliced thinly 🥩
2 large eggs 🍳
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese) 🧀
1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking) 🫒
Salt and pepper, to taste 🧂
1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional) 🌿
1 tablespoon butter 🧈
Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish) 🌿
Instructions:
1️⃣ Cook the Steak:
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the steak slices with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Cook the steak for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to your desired doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside. 🥩
2️⃣ Cook the Eggs:
In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Crack the eggs into the skillet, seasoning with salt and pepper. Cook until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny (or cook longer for firmer yolks, if preferred). You can also scramble the eggs if you prefer! 🍳
3️⃣ Assemble the Croissant:
Slice the croissants in half, then toast them lightly in the skillet or oven for extra crunch, if desired. 🥐
4️⃣ Assemble the Sandwich:
Place a layer of steak slices on the bottom half of each croissant. Top with a cooked egg, then sprinkle shredded cheese on top. Place the other croissant half on top to close the sandwich. 🧀
5️⃣ Melt the Cheese:
If you like your cheese extra melty, return the sandwich to the skillet and cover for 1-2 minutes, allowing the cheese to melt completely. 🔥
6️⃣ Serve:
Garnish with fresh parsley for a pop of color, and serve immediately while hot! 🍽️
Pro Tips:
Add Veggies: Add sautéed onions, bell peppers, or spinach for more flavor and nutrients.
Extra Flavor: Try adding a dollop of hot sauce, mayonnaise, or even a little ketchup for an extra kick. 🌶️
Make It Spicy: Sprinkle red pepper flakes on the steak for some heat! 🌶️
This Steak, Egg, and Cheese Croissant Sandwich is a savory, filling, and mouthwatering delight that will satisfy all your cravings. Perfect for a special breakfast or brunch treat! 😋
