Ingredients
For the Sandwich:
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter (divided for cooking)
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 pound shaved steak (look for thinly sliced beef or shave it yourself!)
- 4 eggs, beaten
- 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning (or your favorite steak seasoning)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 slices American cheese (or use cheddar for extra sharpness)
- 2 bagels, sliced and toasted (everything bagels work great!)
For the Sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons mustard (Dijon or yellow mustard works well)
- 1/4 teaspoon dried dill (or fresh dill for a brighter flavor)
Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, and dried dill. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Step 2: Caramelize the Onions
Heat 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and slightly browned (about 8-10 minutes). Transfer the onions to a plate and set aside.
Step 3: Scramble the Eggs
In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of butter. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble until fluffy. Divide the eggs into two portions for the sandwiches.
Step 4: Cook the Steak
Place the shaved steak in a bowl and toss with Worcestershire sauce and Montreal steak seasoning. Add the remaining tablespoon of butter to the skillet and cook the steak over medium heat until just browned (about 3-4 minutes). Add the caramelized onions back to the skillet and stir to combine. Divide the steak and onion mixture into two piles and top each with a slice of cheese to melt.
Step 5: Toast the Bagels
Toast the bagel halves on the skillet or in a toaster until golden and crispy.
Step 6: Assemble the Sandwiches
Spread the dill-mustard sauce on both halves of the bagels. On the bottom half, layer one portion of scrambled eggs, followed by the steak, onion, and cheese mixture. Top with the other half of the bagel.
Tips for Customization
- Spice It Up: Add a dash of hot sauce or red pepper flakes to the sauce.
- Cheese Swap: Try pepper jack, Swiss, or provolone for a different flavor.
- Add Veggies: Include sautéed bell peppers or mushrooms for extra texture.
- Low-Carb Option: Skip the bagel and serve the filling in a lettuce wrap or on a bed of greens.
- Make It a Wrap: Use a large tortilla instead of a bagel for a portable twist.
