Instructions

1. Step 1: Pat 10 oz Angus steak dry and season both sides with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add steak and sear for 4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, then transfer to a plate to rest.
2. Step 2: In the same skillet, add 4 oz breakfast sausage and cook over medium heat, breaking it apart, until browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle 2 tbsp all-purpose flour over the sausage and stir for 1 minute to cook the flour.
3. Step 3: Gradually whisk in 1 cup whole milk, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens and coats the back of a spoon, about 3-4 minutes. Season with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper, then remove from heat.
4. Step 4: While gravy cooks, bake or air fry 12 oz frozen hoe fries according to package instructions until golden and crisp, about 15-20 minutes.
5. Step 5: Melt 1 tbsp butter in a nonstick pan over medium heat. Crack 2 eggs and cook to desired doneness (sunny side up or over easy), about 3-4 minutes.
6. Step 6: Toast 2 slices of bread until golden. Serve steak topped with sausage gravy alongside hoe fries and eggs with toast on the side.
