This is the ultimate steak and cheese sandwich topped with a sunny side egg and a chimichurri-style sauce
The Deets
Here’s a mouthwatering treat to celebrate Father’s Day—steak and cheese sandwiches topped with sunny side eggs and drizzled with a vibrant chimichurri-style sauce! These sandwiches are packed with bold, savory flavors and are surprisingly easy to prepare, making them the perfect dish to enjoy with the family. The rich, juicy steak paired with melty cheese and a perfectly cooked sunny side egg creates a deliciously indulgent bite, while the chimichurri-style sauce adds the perfect kick of freshness and tangy herb flavor that ties everything together. My tip: I like to make chimichurri using a mortar and pestle.
Whether you’re making these sandwiches for a special brunch or a family dinner, they’re sure to impress. The combination of textures—the crispy, warm bread, the tender steak, and the creamy egg—makes each bite a celebration of flavor. Plus, they’re customizable! Feel free to add your favorite veggies, swap out the cheese, or even make the sauce as spicy as you like. Check out the full recipe below, and I hope you all have an amazing, memorable Father’s Day filled with love, laughter, great company, and of course, fantastic food! Enjoy!

Steak and cheeses with sunny side eggs and a chimichurri style sauce
Ingredients
- 1 sirloin steak
- 1/2 a yellow onion diced
- 4 slices of American cheese
- A roll
- 4 eggs
- Butter
The chimichurri style sauce:
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 3 tbsp red wine vinegar
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup parsley washed and chopped
- 1 red chili peppers minced
- 1 tsp oregano
- Salt / pepper
Instructions
- Make chimichurri by combining all ingredients in a bowl. I like to add them to a mortar and pestle and give it a nice blend. Let everything sit together while you make the rest.
- Using a sharp knife, thinly slice the sirloin steak. Season well with salt and pepper. Melt butter in a large skillet and add diced onion. Cook for about 3-4 min or until onion has started to soften. Crank the heat up and add steak. Season again with salt and pepper and cook stirring often for about 5-6 minutes until steak has browned. Move steak to one side of the pan. Reduce heat and add slices of American cheese.
- Crack 2 eggs into the other side of the pan. Add chimichurri sauce overtop. Cook until eggs are desired cook level.
- Toast bun and then add steak and cheese. Add eggs and drizzle with more sauce. Enjoy!
