1. Season steaks with sea salt and coarsely crushed black peppercorns.

3. Heat up a non-stick frying pan on high heat. Add the bacon first, and fry lightly to colour.
4. Add the onions and mushrooms, and sauté.
5. Toss a few times until all the ingredients are well mixed and softened.
6. Finish with a handful of chopped parsley.
