Instructions:
- Prepare the Grits: a. In a medium-sized saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil. b. Stir in the stone-ground grits and salt, then reduce the heat to low. c. Simmer the grits, stirring frequently, until they reach a creamy consistency (about 20-25 minutes). d. Once cooked, add the unsalted butter and shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until melted and well combined.
- Cook the Steak: a. Season the New York strip steaks generously with salt and black pepper on both sides. b. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until it’s hot but not smoking. c. Sear the steaks for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare doneness (adjust cooking time based on your preference). d. Allow the steaks to rest for a few minutes before slicing them thinly against the grain.

- Assemble the Plate: a. Spoon a generous portion of cheesy grits onto each plate. b. Place slices of the seared steak on top of the grits. c. Gently slide a sunny-side-up egg onto the steak and grits. d. Garnish with chopped fresh herbs or green onions for a burst of freshness.
