Description
A hearty, one‑pan breakfast skillet with tender steak bites, flavorful sausages, sautéed peppers, and buttery eggs — warm, filling, and satisfying to start the day.
Ingredients
- ½ pound sirloin steak, trimmed and cut into bite‑sized cubes
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
- Salt, to taste
- Ground black pepper, to taste
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 6 to 8 breakfast or smoked sausages (small size)
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 cup diced bell peppers (mix of red, green, yellow, or orange)
- ½ teaspoon smoked paprika
- Fresh chopped parsley, for garnish (optional)
- Optional additions: crispy hash browns, avocado slices, hot sauce, hollandaise
Instructions
- Preheat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ½ tablespoon olive oil, then add the diced bell peppers. Season with smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly caramelized. Remove peppers from skillet and set aside.
- In the same skillet, add the remaining ½ tablespoon olive oil and increase heat to medium‑high. Season the steak cubes with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Add them to the hot skillet in a single layer and sear each side for about 2–3 minutes until browned to your liking. Remove steak and set aside.
- Add the sausages to the skillet and cook over medium heat, turning occasionally, about 5 minutes or until browned and cooked through. Remove sausages and set aside.
- In a small nonstick skillet (or the same skillet if space), melt the butter over medium‑low heat. Crack in the eggs and cook until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny (about 2‑3 minutes). Season the eggs with salt and pepper.
- To serve, arrange the steak bites, sausages, sautéed peppers, and eggs on a skillet or plate. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired. Add optional elements like hash browns, avocado, hot sauce, or hollandaise as desired.
Notes
- You can swap sirloin for ribeye, strip steak, or leftover steak strips.
- Mix in other veggies such as mushrooms, onions, or spinach for extra flavor.
- Precook hash browns or potatoes as a base layer for more substance.
- To preserve egg yolk texture, undercook slightly and reheat gently.
- Use turkey or chicken sausage to lighten the dish.
