A steak dinner always sounds a little fancy, but you need not shell out the bucks for one when you’re #singlegirldinnering at home. Sure, I’ll select a choice cut of ribeye for myself from time to time, but for a regular weeknight meal I discovered something called “bohemian steak” at Citarella. This long, well-marbled strip is actually the tail of a porterhouse or T-bone steak. It’s really flavorful and just the right size for a #singlegirldinner. Here’s a little insider secret from a Paper Bag Princess (i.e. me): the one I bought was $3.96.

Description
Enjoy a flavorful and budget-friendly steak dinner with bohemian steak, perfectly seasoned and topped with a runny fried egg.
Ingredients
- 1 strip of bohemian steak
- Maldon sea salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper
- Taco seasoning
- 1 organic egg
- Olive oil
- A pat of butter
Instructions
- Season the steak generously with Maldon sea salt, freshly cracked black pepper, and taco seasoning. Drizzle with olive oil and massage the seasonings into the beef. Set aside to marinate for a few minutes.
- Heat a pan over medium-high heat and add a slick of olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, place the steak in the pan.
- Cook the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness. Remove from the pan and let it rest.
- In the same pan, add a pat of butter. Once melted, crack the organic egg into the pan. Fry the egg until the whites are set but the yolk is still runny, about 2-3 minutes.
- Serve the steak topped with the fried egg. Enjoy your budget-friendly steak and eggs!
Notes
Bohemian steak is a cost-effective cut that is flavorful and perfect for single servings. Let the steak rest after cooking to retain its juices. For added flavor, consider serving with a side of creamy mushroom sauce. Store leftover steak in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
