Categories     main-dish

Time 4h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons butter
1 whole chicken, cut into pieces
1 white onion, roughly chopped
1 quart chicken stock
1 1/2 cups strong brewed coffee
1/4 teaspoon brown sugar, optional
4 ham steaks, trimmed
Freshly ground black pepper
4 eggs

Steps:

  • In a medium saucepan over moderate heat, melt the butter. Add chicken and brown skin side down. Turn over and add chopped onion. Cook until soft and starting to color about 6 to 8 minutes. Cover with chicken stock, and add the coffee and brown sugar, if using. Reduce heat to medium and cook the red eye gravy until thick enough to coat the back of the spoon, about 2 to 4 hours. Strain stock into a large bowl and reserve. The chicken can be used for another recipe or discarded.
  • Preheat a large heavy bottomed frying pan over medium-high heat. Season ham steaks with black pepper and add to the hot skillet. Cook until golden brown on each side, 6 to 8 minutes and transfer to serving plates.
  • In the same skillet, once steaks have been removed, reduce heat to medium and fry the eggs to desired doneness.
  • Cover the steaks with red-eye gravy and crown with a fried egg. This dish can be served with potatoes, hash browns or biscuits, if desired.

I've made this recipe several times now and it's always a hit. The ham steak is always cooked perfectly and the red eye gravy is delicious. I usually serve it with eggs and toast for breakfast.

I followed the recipe exactly and the ham steak turned out great. The red eye gravy was a little too salty for my taste, but that's easily fixed by adjusting the amount of salt you add.
