Ingredients
- 4 beef steaks (about 6 oz each, your choice of cut)
- 4 large eggs
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/4 cup maple syrup (or your preferred syrup)
- 1 tablespoon butter (for frying broccoli)
- Optional: fresh herbs for garnish (like parsley or chives)
Instructions
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Season the beef steaks with salt and pepper on both sides.
- Grill the steaks for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until your desired doneness is reached. Remove from heat and let rest.
- In a medium saucepan, bring water to a gentle simmer and add a splash of vinegar (optional, helps the egg whites to coagulate).
- Crack each egg into a small bowl, then gently slide them into the simmering water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes, or until the whites are set but the yolks remain runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the broccoli florets and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, or until they are tender and slightly crispy. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- On each plate, place a grilled beef steak as the base. Top with a poached egg and arrange the fried broccoli on the side.
- Drizzle the maple syrup over the steak and egg for a surprising flavor combination.
- Optionally, sprinkle with fresh herbs for a pop of color and flavor. Serve immediately and enjoy!
