Cooking Method:
- Heat oil in a pan on low medium heat. Gently crack the eggs and cover it with a lid for 2 to 3 minutes until the egg whites set. If you don't have a lid, just cook it longer until the egg whites set. Remove the cooked eggs from the pan.
- Using the same pan, turn up the heat to medium high heat. Add olive oil and sear the steaks on each side for 3 to 5 minutes .
- Then, add the asparagus in the same pan. Add a little bit more olive oil and season with garlic powder and salt. Cover with a lid and let it steam for 3 to 5 minutes.
- Remove both the steak and asparagus from the saute pan onto a serving dish. Serve the meal with the eggs.
- Optional: Sprinkle the eggs with red pepper flakes and add parmesan cheese on top of the asparagus for added flavor. Enjoy!
