By chefbobby

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds skirt or flank steak
• 1 teaspoon sweet or smoked paprika
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 3 cups medium-hot salsa verde
• 8 eggs
• 6 ounces fontina cheese, coarsely grated
• Fresh mint sprigs (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

1) Heat the broiler. Rub steak with paprika, salt and pepper.

2) Pour salsa verde into a heavy 12-inch skillet with a lid. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium. Carefully break eggs directly into simmering salsa. Mound cheese over each egg. Cover and cook 6 to 8 minutes, until whites are set and yolks are still runny.

3) Meanwhile, broil steak until medium rare, about 3 minutes on each side. Let stand 5 minutes, then slice on the bias.

4) Serve steak with eggs, salsa verde and mint sprigs.
