Breaded Fried Steak - Milanesa image

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.
