Equipment You’ll Need

  • 10-inch Non-Stick Skillet or Well-Seasoned Cast Iron Skillet

  • Medium-sized mixing bowl

  • Whisk or fork

  • Tongs

  • Sharp knife and cutting board

  • Plate for resting steak


Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Steak

Begin by taking your steak out of the refrigerator about 20 minutes before cooking to allow it to come to room temperature. This ensures even cooking. While it rests, pat it thoroughly dry with paper towels—this is the secret to a perfect sear. Rub the steak all over with half of the avocado oil, then season generously with kosher salt, black pepper (if using), and garlic powder (if using).

Step 2: Cook the Steak to Perfection

  1. Place your skillet over medium-high heat and let it get screaming hot. This should take about 2-3 minutes.

  2. Carefully place the seasoned steak in the hot, dry skillet. You should hear an immediate, aggressive sizzle.

  3. Cook for 3-4 minutes without moving it, allowing a deep, brown crust to form.

  4. Flip the steak using tongs and cook for another 3-4 minutes for a perfect medium-rare (135°F or 57°C internally). For medium, cook for 5-6 minutes per side (145°F or 63°C). Adjust time based on the thickness of your steak.

  5. Once cooked to your liking, transfer the steak to a cutting board or plate and let it rest for at least 5 minutes. Do not skip the rest! This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, guaranteeing a tender, juicy bite.

Step 3: Create the Giant Egg Wrap

While the steak is resting, it’s time to make the wrap.

  1. In your mixing bowl, crack the two eggs and add a pinch of salt. Whisk vigorously until the whites and yolks are completely homogenous and slightly frothy. This is crucial for a strong, uniform wrap.

  2. Wipe out the steak skillet with a paper towel (be careful, it’s hot!) and return it to medium-low heat. Add the tablespoon of ghee or butter and let it melt, coating the entire bottom of the pan.

  3. Pour the whisked eggs into the center of the pan, then immediately tilt and swirl the pan so the egg forms a large, thin, even layer that covers the entire bottom, like a crepe.

  4. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the top surface of the egg is set and no longer runny. You can gently lift the edge with a spatula to check that the bottom is a light, golden brown. There is no need to flip it. The low heat and patience are key to preventing browning or burning, resulting in a pliable, pale yellow wrap.

Step 4: Assemble Your Carnivore Masterpiece

  1. Carefully slide your giant egg wrap onto a clean plate.

  2. Take your rested steak and slice it against the grain into thin, bite-sized strips. Slicing against the grain (perpendicular to the muscle fibers) is the single most important step for ensuring your steak is melt-in-your-mouth tender.

  3. Arrange the warm, juicy steak strips in a line down the center of the egg wrap.

  4. (Optional) For an extra layer of richness, you can drizzle any resting juices from the steak cutting board over the meat.

  5. Now, fold and roll. First, fold the bottom third of the egg wrap up and over the steak. Then, fold in the left and right sides. Finally, roll the entire bundle forward, creating a tight, burrito-style wrap. The warm egg will be pliable and seal itself nicely.

Serving & Enjoyment

Serve your Carnivore Steak Egg Wrap immediately while everything is warm. The contrast of the tender, savory steak with the soft, rich egg wrap is a textural and flavorful dream. It’s a complete, handheld meal that requires no sides, though a simple dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of sharp cheddar cheese can be added for those not following a strict carnivore diet.

Chef’s Notes & Final Tips

  • Steak Alternatives: While ribeye offers incredible flavor from its marbling, you can use any steak you like. Skirt steak or flank steak are excellent, more budget-friendly options—just be sure to slice them very thinly against the grain.

  • The Perfect Egg Wrap: If your first egg wrap tears, don’t despair! Simply use it as a base, pile the steak on top, and eat it with a knife and fork like an open-faced omelette. It will taste just as delicious.

  • Meal Prep Friendly: You can cook and slice the steak in advance. Store it in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. When ready to eat, quickly reheat the steak slices in a hot pan for 60 seconds and make a fresh egg wrap for the best texture.

  • Listen to the Sizzle: That initial, loud sizzle when the steak hits the pan is your audio cue that you’ve achieved the right temperature for a proper sear. Embrace it!

Enjoy your journey into pure, unadulterated carnivore delight
