CHOPPED STEAKWITH ONIONS & MUSHROOMS

Directions

1. Roughly mix beef with shallots, half of thyme, salt & pepper. Form into patties.
2. Crisp bacon over medium heat. Add onions, let caramelize, about 12 to 15 mins.
3. Sear the meat for 2 to 3 mins per side until browned but not cooked through. Move off sear burner to lower heat and cook to desired doneness.
4. Grill mushrooms to get them charred. Add to bacon/onion mixture, if desired.
5. Once vegetables are nice and golden brown, deglaze with beef stock, adding in remaining thyme, salt & pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer over low for 20 to 25 mins or until vegetables are tender. Set aside.
6. If desired, grill asparagus and fry eggs for plating. Garnish with thyme.
