Milanesas

Ingredients -beef (thin cuts, in the US I use sandwich steaks) -eggs -bread crumbs -salt, garlic powder, parsley, lemon juice -olive oil Directions Tenderize the steaks by pounding on them with a meat tenderizer. Children and men seem to enjoy doing this, so you may want to enlist their help. Lightly beat the egg(s) with a fork and add salt, garlic powder and chopped parsley. Mix. Pass the meat through the egg mixture, and then through the bread crumbs. You can use either plain bread crumbs, or "Italian" style. Coat well. Fry in olive oil until done, usually a couple of minutes on each side. You can also bake the milanesas on the oven - for a less fatty alternative. If you fry them, make sure to use a few paper towels to drain the oil. You can serve the milanesas plain (traditionally, they go very well with friend potatos) or in a sandwich. They are very good cold, and all that pounding makes them very tender. You can also try them with melted cheese, ham and a friend egg on top. Creator Comment This dish is so simple, it doesn't really need a recipe. But it seems many people don't know about it - so here it is. It makes for great sandwiches.
