Servings: 4 | Prep Time: 15 minutes | Cook Time: 15 minutes
Ingredients
Chimichurri:
- ¾ cup (180 ml) finely chopped fresh parsley
- ⅓ cup (75 ml) olive oil
- ¼ cup (125 ml) red wine vinegar
- 1 red Thai chili, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ½ tsp (2 ml) kosher salt
Steak:
- 8 oz (250 g) beef top sirloin steak
- 1 tsp (5 ml) each kosher salt and pepper, divided
- 1 tbsp (15 ml) olive oil
- 10 cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 2 cups (500 ml) frozen mixed sliced peppers and onion blend
- 2 cups (500 ml) frozen diced hash brown potatoes
- 4 eggs
Directions
- Chimichurri: In a small bowl, combine parsley, oil, vinegar, chili, garlic and salt. Set aside.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Season steak all over with ½ tsp each of salt and pepper. Cook steak, uncovered, turning periodically until golden brown; about 4-5 minutes for medium rare. Remove to a board to let rest.
- In the same skillet, add oil, mushrooms, peppers and onion blend, potatoes and remaining ½ tsp each of salt and pepper. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until potatoes are warmed through.
- Make 4 shallow wells and add an egg into each well. Reduce heat to medium-low and let cook uncovered until egg whites have set, about 4 minutes.
- Slice steak and arrange on skillet. Spoon chimichurri over steak and eggs to serve.
Tip: In place of the frozen peppers and onions, you can use 1 bell pepper (any colour) cut lengthwise into thin strips and half a small onion, sliced. Sauté peppers and onions with mushrooms for 2 minutes before adding the potatoes, then proceed as directed.
