️ Why You’ll Love This Dish
There’s something undeniably satisfying about a hearty plate of tender steak topped with fresh, herb‑packed chimichurri sauce, paired with perfectly cooked eggs. Strip steak and eggs is already a classic protein‑rich meal — but add chimichurri, and you get a burst of freshness, garlic, and acidity that cuts through the richness of the meat and eggs. It’s bold, balanced, and beautiful on the plate.
If you want a breakfast, brunch, or dinner that feels indulgent yet wholesome — this is it.
