Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Take the beef steak out of the refrigerator and let it rest at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps in even cooking.

  2. 2

    Season the Beef

    Rub the beef steak with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder on both sides. Ensure the steak is evenly coated with the seasonings.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Cook the Bacon

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the bacon slices. Cook until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the bacon from the skillet and let it drain on paper towels.

  2. 4

    Cook the Beef

    In the same skillet with the bacon drippings (add a little oil if necessary), increase the heat to medium-high. Add the seasoned beef steak to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare or until desired doneness is achieved. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness (130°F for medium-rare).

Serving

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    Once the beef steak is cooked to your liking, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for about 5 minutes. Slice the steak against the grain and plate it with crispy bacon on top.

  2. 6

    Garnish and Serve

    Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the beef and bacon before serving for added flavor and presentation.
