Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 plain bagels
- 0.5 pound shaved steak
- 4 eggs
- 2 slices American cheese
- 1 small onion
Seasoning and Spices:
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Cooking and Sauce Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.5 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons mustard
- 0.25 teaspoon dried dill
Instructions
- Craft a zesty breakfast sauce by blending mayonnaise, mustard, and dill in a small container. Refrigerate for flavor melding.
- Warm a skillet over medium heat and melt butter. Sauté sliced onions with a pinch of salt until they develop a golden-brown caramelization. Transfer onions to a separate plate.
- Season shaved steak with Worcestershire sauce and Montreal steak seasoning, ensuring even coating.
- Add another butter portion to the skillet and sear the seasoned steak until it reaches a perfect golden-brown color.
- Reintroduce caramelized onions to the skillet, combining them with the steak. Create two distinct meat piles in the pan.
- Drape cheese slices over each meat pile, allowing them to melt and create a luxurious blanket.
- Using the same skillet, melt remaining butter and gently scramble eggs, dividing them into two equal portions for the sandwiches.
- Toast bagels until they achieve a crisp, golden exterior using a skillet or toaster.
- Generously spread the prepared breakfast sauce on both bagel halves.
- Layer the bottom bagel half with scrambled eggs, followed by the steak and onion mixture.
- Crown the sandwich with the top bagel half, pressing gently to meld all flavors together.
Notes
- Customize the breakfast sauce by adjusting mustard and dill ratios to match personal flavor preferences.
- Ensure steak is thinly sliced and quickly cooked to maintain tenderness and prevent overcooking.
- Use high-quality steak seasoning for enhanced flavor depth and restaurant-style taste.
- Opt for whole wheat or multigrain bagels to increase nutritional value and add a healthier twist.
