Milanesa Napolitana image

In Buenos Aires, Argentina in the 1940's the milanesa, or breaded steak, was refashioned into a beef parmesan. They love Italian food. I made this with Stehouwers Beef Sizzlers (you can get them at Wal-Mart). I accidentally mistook them for minutes steaks in the freezer. They turn out to be very thin rib-eye over a cube steak...

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb stehouwer's beef sizzler patties, or top round steak
1-2 c all-purpose flour or fine milled almond flour (for low carb)
2 large eggs
2 Tbsp water
1 c marinara sauce
6 slice very thin ham (like packaged lunchmeat thin)
6-12 slice mozzarella cheese
cooking oil

Steps:

  • 1. If you are using top round, cut it into 4-6 sections and pound it out as thin as you can.
  • 2. Whisk the egg with water. Use the beaten egg to dip the meat into, then dredge in flour.
  • 3. Shallow fry in a large skillet in oil (about half inch deep) until browned on both sides. Almond flour needs a gentle touch so don't poke at it too much and have the crust falling off.
  • 4. Preheat the oven to 375F. Place the browned patties on a baking sheet, cover with a ham slice, then marinara, then cheese. I like using 2 pieces of cheese.
  • 5. Bake until hot and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes give or take.
  • 6. Serve with spaghetti or zucchini zoodles.
