  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale

Sandwich:

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion, sliced
  • ½ pound shaved steak
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon Montreal steak seasoning
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 slices American cheese
  • 2 bagels

Sauce:

  • ½ cup mayonnaise
  • 2 tablespoons mustard
  • ¼ teaspoon dried dill

Instructions

  • Prepare Sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, mustard, and dried dill. Store the sauce in the refrigerator until ready to use. Beginner Note: Making the sauce ahead of time allows the flavors to meld together.
  • Cook Onions: Add 1 tablespoon of butter to a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and salt. Stir and cook until the onions start to turn slightly brown and soften, about 5-7 minutes. Carefully remove the onions from the skillet and transfer them to a plate or bowl. Beginner Note: Caramelizing the onions adds a depth of flavor to the sandwich.
  • Cook Eggs: Add another tablespoon of butter to the same skillet or griddle. Pour in the beaten eggs and cook them, scrambling them until they are cooked through but still slightly moist. Divide the scrambled eggs into two portions for the sandwiches. Beginner Note: Don’t overcook the eggs, as they will become dry.
  • Season Steak: Place the shaved steak in a bowl. Pour in the Worcestershire sauce and Montreal steak seasoning. Toss to coat the steak evenly. Beginner Note: Marinating the steak for a few minutes will enhance its flavor, but it’s not essential if you’re short on time.
  • Cook Steak: Add the last tablespoon of butter to the skillet or griddle over medium heat. Place the seasoned shaved steak on the skillet. Stir and cook the steak until it is just browned and cooked through, about 2-3 minutes. Add the cooked onions back in with the steak and stir to combine. Separate the steak and onion mixture into two piles for the sandwiches. Place one slice of American cheese on top of each pile to allow the cheese to melt. Beginner Note: Shaved steak cooks very quickly, so watch it closely to avoid overcooking.
  • Toast Bagels: Toast the bagels either on the skillet or in a toaster until they are lightly golden brown. Beginner Note: Toasting the bagels prevents them from becoming soggy when you add the fillings.
  • Assemble Sandwiches: Spread the prepared sauce on each half of the toasted bagels. Place one portion of the scrambled eggs on top of the bottom half of each bagel. Then, place the steak, onion, and melted cheese on top of the eggs. Finish by topping with the other half of the bagel. Beginner Note: You can add other toppings at this point, such as lettuce, tomato, or pickles.
  • Serve: Serve the Copycat McDonald’s Steak, Egg, and Cheese sandwiches immediately and enjoy!

Notes

  • Don’t overcook the steak.
  • Caramelize onions for deeper flavor.
  • Customize with your favorite toppings.
