Best Milanesa Cuban Chicken Fried Steak Recipes
BISTEC DE PALOMILLA (CUBAN FRIED STEAK)
Living in South Florida for several years, this was a favorite of mine when we'd go out to a Cuban restaurant. It's good with black beans & rice & fried plantains.

Steps:
- Pound the steaks on both sides, using a mallet, until 1/4-inch thin. Season with garlic, lime juice, salt & pepper. Allow to marinate at least 1 hour, refrigerated.
- Remove the steaks from marinade & pat dry. In a large frying pan, heat the oil over medium heat until very hot. Brown each steak for 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
- Transfer the steaks to a serving platter & keep warm. Add the marinade & onion to the pan & cook until the onion is slightly wilted, 3 to 4 minutes. Garnish the steaks with the onion & parsley & serve immediately.
MILANESA
I LOVE milanesa, it's basically a mexican chicken fried steak with no gravy, I sprinkle with lemon and serve with my Easy Mexican Rice, salad and sliced avocado.

Steps:
- Heat Oil.
- Salt and Pepper flour on one plate.
- Make Egg Wash.
- Crush Saltines, I use a food processor, adding in garlic powder, onion powder and pepper. Put crumbs on another plate. (No need to add salt as the saltines are salty enough.).
- I usually cut the steaks in half to fit in the frying pan, but you can leave them in one big piece if the steaks will fit in yours.
- Dip steak in flour, then egg then cover with saltine crumbs.
- Fry in oil for about 3-5 minutes on each side until nicely browned. It won't take long because the steaks are so thin.
- Drain on Paper Towels.
- OPTIONAL: Serve with Avocado, Pico de Gallo, Salad, Rice and/or Beans and sprinkle steaks with lemon juice.

BREADED FRIED STEAK - MILANESA
Popular throughout Latin America (especially in Uruguay), milanesas are thin cut steaks that have been breaded and fried. They're easy to make and perfect for a quick supper. Start with thinly sliced top round, dip slices in egg and bread crumbs, and fry for a few minutes on each side. You can make milanesas with chicken breasts too (pollo a la milanesa) - just be sure to pound them to a thin, even thickness. Steak milanesas are delicious served with chimichurri sauce.
