Ingredients

• 2 6oz sirloin steaks
• 2 pastured eggs (Vital Farms is a great producer and they are now widely available)
• 2 tbsp butter
• 2 cups fresh parsley (finely minced)
• 1/4 cup fresh oregano
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
• Pinch sea salt
• Pinch fresh ground black pepper

Directions

1. For Chimichurri:

2. Combine parsley, oregano, garlic, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, sea salt, and black pepper in a small bowl, mash them up a bit and let them sit. The flavors will only get better as they meld together.

3. For Steaks:

4. Heat a well-seasoned iron skillet in a 400 degree oven and at the same time, melt your butter in a frying pan. Use a little bit of the butter to brush your steaks (on both sides) and carefully remove the iron skillet to a safe surface such as your oven\’s burners. Put the steaks on the skillet, letting them sear for ~3 minutes. Flip the steaks and put the skillet back into the oven.

5. Set the oven to a high broil, and while the steaks cook, another 3-5 minutes max, fry in the remaining butter.

6. Remove the steaks from the oven and let them rest on a plate for 5 minutes. When you are ready to serve your steaks, top with a fried egg and a generous drizzle of chimichurri.
