NY strip cooked in beef tallow (cast iron), rested to 125°F (rare). Sunny-side-up egg finished with a splash of cream, steamed to set the white while still allowing the yolk to run. Browned butter and cream sauce pooled in the center, with a cilantro chimichurri brightened by mandarin balsamic for a sweet-tangy contrast. Freshly ground Tellicherry black pepper. Post-kickboxing fuel worth the punch.

Nice, have a little OJ with it.
Perfect egg 🥚
the mandarin balsamic chimichurri combo is something i never would’ve thought to do but it makes total sense as a brightness cut against all that richness from the tallow and browned butter. gonna have to steal that idea
That may be homemade but it screams pro chef.
