Beef Milanesa Torta Recipe 455

Steps:

• Sprinkle the cutlets with salt and pepper all over. Put the flour on a plate and season with salt and pepper. Put the breadcrumbs in a second plate and the beaten eggs in a shallow bowl. Dip the cutlets into the flour, then the eggs and finally into the breadcrumbs, pressing down on both sides so that the breadcrumbs adhere to the meat.
• Heat enough oil in a large skillet to come 1/3-inch up the sides of pan until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 350 degrees F. Working in two batches, pan-fry the cutlets until golden, about 2 minutes per side. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to some paper towels to drain.
• To assemble the sandwiches, halve the rolls horizontally. Pull out the soft center of the bread slices and discard. Place the cutlets on the bottom halves of the rolls and top with mayonnaise if using, the lettuce, tomato, avocado, onion and jalapeno. Arrange the sandwiches on serving plates and garnish with lime wedges.

Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a large skillet.
• Sprinkle the steaks with salt and pepper. Add the flour to a shallow bowl. In another shallow bowl, lightly beat the eggs. In another shallow bowl, add the panko. Lightly coat both sides of the steaks in the flour, then egg, then panko.
• Pan fry 2 steaks at a time until golden brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the steak from the skillet and onto a paper-towel-lined-plate. Repeat with the remaining 2 steaks. Sprinkle the fried steaks with salt. In a small bowl, add the sour cream, lime zest, lime juice and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Cut the rolls in half lengthwise and spread one side with the sour cream mixture. Lay the steaks on each roll and top with the lettuce, Roasted Salsa, jalapenos and avocados. Blast Spanish radio station and enjoy.
• Position a rack on the top of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F. In a large bowl, combine 3 tablespoons of the olive oil, the tomatoes, garlic, jalapeno, onions and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place the vegetables on a baking sheet and roast until soft, 20 to 25 minutes. Add the roasted vegetables to a food processor with the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the cilantro, vinegar, sugar and lime juice. Pulse until chunky. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Dredge steaks in egg and breadcrumbs, set aside.
• Heat about 1/4 inch oil in a large non-stick skillet to medium heat.
• Test temp of oil by sprinkling some breadcrumbs into oil.
• If they do nothing the oil is too cold, if they burn the oil is too hot, if they sizzle but don't burn it's ready.
• Fry steaks a few at a time about 3 minutes or so on each side (just until they are golden brown).
• Put steaks in a warm oven to keep warm while you continue with the next steps.
• In a small skillet brown chorizo until cooked through, about 5-6 minutes; drain on paper towel and set aside.
• To assemble sandwiches: you might want to heat bread in a warm oven, but every time I do this step the bread is still cold by the time I am done assembling so I have started to skip this step.
• If using French bread, half or other wise cut loaf to the size you want for your sandwiches.
• Then split the bread (or sub buns) down the center and scoop out excess bread.
• To each sandwich you will do the following: to the top half spread liberally with sour cream; sprinkle with crumbled queso fresco.
• Set aside.
• To the bottom half spread with refried beans (I just spread it straight from the can with a butter knife).
• Sprinkle with 1/4 of the chorizo.
• Put 1-2 steaks (depending on the size of your steaks) on top of chorizo in one layer.
• Top with shredded lettuce.
• Then add the sliced tomato.
• Followed by the avocado slices.
• Then the onions.
• Add the sandwich top and open really wide!

Steps:

• Pound boneless steaks thin, ¼ inch.
• In a shallow soup plate or pan, beat the egg very well. In a second shallow pan mix the flour, salt, and pepper. Put the bread crumbs in a third shallow pan. Line up the bowls in this order: flour, egg, crumbs.
• Dust the meat lightly with flour, dip into the beaten egg, and coat with bread crumbs. Put the breaded meat on a plate lined with wax paper and refrigerate about 1 hour.
• In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil to a depth of about ¼ inch.
• Fry the meat until brown and crisp, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Squeeze lime juice over each piece of meat, if desired.
