Meal 2 : "HEALTHY" breakfast: steak eggs n potato

when i say " HEALTHY" , i meant manly Healthy, nothing is better than steak, eggs n potato in the morning for a man right? unless u get a "happy good morning" giggity!!!! well, anyways, here is my sunday breakfast after a night of drinking >_-

A:
  • Flank steak
  • 1.5 cups of Red wine ( Merlot, or cab will do)
  • 1 cup of soy sauce
  • 1/4 can of Dr. pepper(yes Dr. pepper)
  • fresh grind black pepper

  • pinch of kosher Salt
  • fresh rosemary
  • 2 cloves of garlic



  • B:
  • 1 potato , partical skinned(healthy purpose??? u know after night of drinking we have to be healthy!) cut into cubic shape
  • 1/8 of onions
  • 1 fresh rosemary/basil
  • chicken stocks

  • C
  • 2 cups of Beef stock
  • 1 cup of Merlot/ brandy
  • 4 table spoon of cream
  • fresh black pepper, do not grind them.

  • D

  • 2 eggs( do i really need to tell you how to cook them?)


  • 1. marinate the steak


    mix A in a non metal container , throw the steak in there and let it sit for about 30 mins.



    2. i say potato u say potato......potato or potato??


    put some EVOO on the skillet, sautee onion fist and add the potato in to the skillet. Chop some fresh basil /rosemary and add them into the skillet, do not stir the potato too much, let it cook till turn into crispy golden brown, then add little bit chicken stock and cover the skillet for 10 mins. (so it will soften the potato inside)



    3. sizzzzzzzzzling the steak!!!


    heat up the pan and add olive oil and grill the steak!!!! since it's flank steak i'll say med heat, and 4-6 min each side for medium-well, if you are not sure, get a toothpick and poke the middle to see the readiness of the steak. After the steak is cook you might find the grill pan is a little bit burned, but it's ok, DO NOT wash them yet, keep reading you'll know why.



    4. sassy saucey? (does it even make sense?)

    ok you might think the Pan is burned, but what you don't know is that little thing on the pan is one of the best part of the meat, it contain soooo much flavor with in. So here is what we gonna do. Turn the stove on low -med fire, and add beef stock and Merlot,use a wooden whisk, and whisk the burn part slowly make it dissolve into the Stock sauce, add some Black pepper and salt to season, Cover it and let it reduce to about 1/2. then add little cream and let the sauce thicken.

    5. plate it and enjoy !!!
