Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Pat steaks dry. Season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.

  2. Step 2

    Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Sear steaks 90 seconds per side without moving—they should be golden brown and center stays rare.

  4. Step 4

    Remove steaks to a plate. Slice sausage into coins, add to the pan, and cook until edges brown, 3 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Push sausage to the side. Add butter and eggs to empty space. Fry until whites set but yolks still jiggle, 3 minutes.

  6. Step 6

    Arrange steaks on a plate. Top with a small dollop of pâté, then eggs and sausage alongside. Drizzle with soy sauce.
