    Recipe Introduction


    This dish is considered an extravagance and is usually served
    only on special occasions. I hope you have a special occasion
    coming up soon so you'll try this classic Portuguese version of
    the ubiquitous steak and eggs.
    Portuguese - Steak w/Eggs (Bifes com Ovos)

    2 boneless thinly cut beef steaks, about 4 oz (100 g) each
    1 Tbs (15 ml) lemon juice
    1 clove garlic, finely chopped
    Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    3 Tbs (45 ml) butter
    2 eggs, beaten
    1 Tbs (15 ml) chopped chives or parsley

    Sprinkle the steaks with the lemon juice, garlic, salt, and pepper
    and let sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Heat the butter
    in a large heavy skillet over moderate heat and fry the steaks
    until desired degree of doneness. Transfer the steaks to warm
    dishes. Mix the eggs with the chopped chives and cook in the
    same skillet, stirring constantly, until set but still soft. Spoon the
    scrambled eggs over the steaks and serve immediately. Serves 2.
