Flank Steak with Brioche French Toast and Savory Herbed Hollandaise
This dish marries the richness of traditional French flavors with a cozy twist, perfect for a comforting yet refined meal. The savory herbed hollandaise adds a luxurious touch to the tender, perfectly seared flank steak, while the brioche French toast offers a delightful contrast of textures.
Step 1: Season the flank steak generously with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Step 2: Prepare the French toast: Whisk 2 eggs with 50ml of heavy cream. Dip brioche slices in the mixture and cook on a buttered skillet over medium heat until golden brown. Keep warm.
Step 3: Sear the steak: Heat a skillet over high heat, add a bit of butter, and sear the steak for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Let it rest.
Step 4: Make the herbed hollandaise: Melt 150g of butter. Whisk the remaining egg yolks with a dash of lemon juice in a bowl over simmering water. Slowly pour in the melted butter while whisking until thickened. Stir in chopped thyme and chives. Season with salt and pepper.
Step 5: Slice the rested steak and serve it over the brioche French toast, drizzling with generous amounts of herbed hollandaise.
