McDonald’s Steak Egg Cheese (Printer-Friendly)

A savory sandwich layered with tender steak, fluffy eggs, melty cheese, and warm toasted bagels.

# What You’ll Need:

→ Bagel Components

01 - 4 plain bagels, sliced horizontally
02 - 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, for toasting
03 - 4 slices American cheese

→ Egg Mixture

04 - 4 large eggs
05 - 2 tablespoons whole milk
06 - Salt, to taste
07 - Black pepper, to taste
08 - 1 tablespoon butter or oil, for cooking eggs

→ Steak

09 - 8 ounces shaved ribeye or sirloin beef steak
10 - 1 tablespoon oil, for cooking steak
11 - ½ teaspoon garlic powder
12 - ½ teaspoon onion powder
13 - ¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
14 - Salt, to taste
15 - Black pepper, to taste

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shaved steak and season evenly with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.
02 - In a bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until combined. Heat 1 tablespoon butter or oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Pour in the egg mixture and gently scramble until the eggs are just set but still moist and fluffy. Divide evenly into four portions.
03 - Slice the bagels horizontally and toast until golden brown, either in a toaster or on a skillet spread with butter to add extra flavor and crispness.
04 - Place one slice of American cheese on the bottom half of each toasted bagel. Layer each with a portion of scrambled eggs, then top with a generous serving of the cooked steak. Seal with the top half of the bagel.
05 - Optionally, place assembled sandwiches in a warm skillet or heated oven for 1 to 2 minutes to melt the cheese thoroughly. Serve immediately while warm.

# Helpful Hints:

01 - Using thinly sliced ribeye or sirloin ensures tenderness and flavor closely resembling the original.
02 - Avoid overcooking eggs to maintain a soft, fluffy texture for an authentic bite.
