Method

Steak Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Steak

    Season the Wagyu flank steak with salt and black pepper on both sides. Let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Steak

    Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Once hot, add the steak and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Adjust time based on desired doneness.

  3. 3

    Rest the Steak

    Remove the steak from the heat and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing it thinly against the grain.

Greens and Eggs

  1. 4

    Wilt the Spinach

    In a large skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the fresh spinach and a pinch of salt. Sauté until just wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

  2. 5

    Poach the Eggs

    Fill a saucepan with water, add a splash of vinegar, and bring to a gentle simmer. Crack an egg into a small bowl and gently slide it into the simmering water. Repeat for the remaining eggs. Poach for about 3 minutes or until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the Dish

    On each plate, create a bed of wilted spinach. Top with slices of the rested Wagyu flank steak. Place a poached egg on top of the steak and drizzle with hollandaise sauce.

  2. 7

    Garnish

    Sprinkle with chopped chives and paprika if desired, and serve immediately.
