Instructions
 

Breakfast Potatoes:

  • Clean the potatoes and cut them into smaller pieces.
  • Add the chopped potatoes to a pot of water.
  • On medium high to high heat, allow the pot of water to come to a boil.
  • Cover with a lid & allow the potatoes to cook for 5 minutes.
  • Check the tenderness of the potatoes with a fork.
  • Once the potatoes are firm & tender (not too soft or mushy), drain the potatoes.
  • In a skillet on medium high heat, add some olive oil & butter.
  • Once the butter has melted add the parboiled potatoes.
  • Add the dry seasonings (Note: season the potatoes lightly with the dry seasonings. Adjust according to your taste buds.)
  • Add the fresh garlic & chopped onion, sauté for 2 minutes.
  • Once the potatoes are done, set aside.

Garlic Butter Steak:

  • Clean & prep the steaks. Pat dry with a paper towel.
  • Season the steaks to your liking.
  • Seasoning Options - Pick 1: 1). salt & pepper or 2). steakhouse seasoning or 3). Garlic pepper seasoning, garlic powder, onion powder, & steakhouse seasoning.
  • On medium high heat, add some olive oil to a skillet and allow it to get hot.
  • Once the oil is hot, add the steaks to the skillet.
  • Allow the steaks to cook a few minutes on one side, then flip over and cook the other side.
  • Note: I like to flip the steaks over every few minutes continuously throughout the cooking time. Why? - so that the steaks cook evenly.
  • When the steaks are almost done (based on your preference)- add the butter, fresh garlic & thyme. Allow the garlic & thyme to cook for about a minute or two.
  • Once the butter has melted, baste the steaks at least twice with the butter.
  • Turn the stove off, & allow the steaks to rest a few minutes, before slicing into smaller pieces.

Cheesy Scrambled Eggs:

  • For the eggs, you can cook them based on your personal preference. I like my eggs scrambled.
  • Crack the eggs into a bowl. Add a splash of half & half or milk.
  • Whisk the eggs with a fork.
  • On medium high heat, melt some butter (Alternative: cooking spray) then add your eggs.
  • Allow the eggs to cook, once the eggs are almost done add cheese on top and allow it to melt.
  • Optional: season with salt and pepper
